In the Winter - Live - Janis Ian

The days are okay

I watch the TV in the afternoon

If I get lonely

The sound of other voices, other rooms

Are near to me, I'm not afraid.

The operator, she tells the time

It's good for a laugh

There's always radio

And for a dime I can

Talk to God, dial-a-prayer,

Are you there? Do you care?

Are you there?

And in the winter

Extra blankets for the cold

Fix the heater getting old

I am wiser now, you know

And still as big a fool

Concerning you

I met your friend

She's very nice

What can I say?

It was an accident

I never dreamed we'd meet

Again this way, you're looking well

I'm not afraid

You have a lovely home

Just like a picture

No, I live alone

I found it easier

You must remember how

I never liked the party life

Up all night, lovely wife

You have a lovely wife

And in the winter

Extra blankets for the cold

Fix the heater getting old

You are with her now, I know

I'll live alone forever

Not together now
