December came faster than most   And before we knew it, it was cold   And you turned to me    As if to say that we should not have come this way   You didn’t ask a question, so I had no reply   And we came upon a congregation   And we turned our faces to the constellation   Singing “we are both believers now”   But still there was no voice in the clouds   You see, the stars are not our conscience   They are just another light in our eyes   In our eyes   They are just another light keeping us blind   Long time I have left Umeah   Long time travelled in your company   But I see the road before us split   And I know that I should follow it   But I know that I will find you   When the morning spreads it’s breath across the night   Find you   In the morning at the end of my life   December’s roads are long and they’re tough   And sometimes I get really tired and stuck   But I keep the thought that when I die   They will carry me and lay me by your side   They will carry me and lay me by your side   And there amongst the dirt   At last our roads again will merge
