Backed in to the corners and I'm holding the alarm but
 The moment I wake up I come to life again
 Slowly as the light shines again (let it go)
 It's the frozen white morning
 Backed in to the corners and I'm holding the alarm but
 The moment I wake up I come to life again
 Slowly as the light shines again (let it go)
 It's the frozen white morning

 Empty shopping bags
 Are overflowing from my cupboard
 Filled to every nook
 But you came in from the early dawn
 With one of those letters (let it go)

 Backed in to the corners and I'm holding the alarm but
 The moment I wake up I come to life again
 Slowly as the light shines again (let it go)
 It's the frozen white morning
 Backed in to the corners and I'm holding the alarm but
 The moment I wake up I come to life again
 Slowly as the light shines again (let it go)
 It's the frozen white morning

 Sat with me that night
 And watched me eat my dinner
 And you pulled a poem you said you'd read
 A classic of the winter

 But you dove in to the words spoken so loud
 To make sure that the kettle wouldn't drown you out
 Let's reach the last few words or I couldn't remember

 Backed in to the corners and I'm holding the alarm but
 The moment I wake up I come to life again
 Slowly as the light shines again (let it go)
 It's the frozen white morning
 Backed in to the corners and I'm holding the alarm but
 The moment I wake up I come to life again
 Slowly as the light shines again (let it go)
 It's the frozen white morning
