rotary ghost - dec 1 2016 (song about winter) lyrics

i hope it snows before your birthday
so we can take pretty polaroids
we’ll be spectres with rosy faces
in the vague light late afternoon
complacent but not dead at all
but we’ll be snowmen in broad daylight
so candid, so reflective
i haven’t seen such a striking painting
no chelsea lobby could provide

this is a song about the winter
sorry it’s not very bitter
it could be about any other season
why would i have to give a reason?
