I'm truly moved by the depth, and symmetry of the song lyrics. Brilliant, elegant and timeless like the delicate tendrils that sprout the barren earth during the cessation of Winter. It depicts that accaumlative wear, tear of live our life. As we learn the inherent contradiction, and foramlities of living adult live; we lose the pretension of innocence. As we grow old, the romance of simple constructs such as the snow falling, the bite of the cold artic wind or the wonders of the falling leaves in Autumn lose the uniqueness, their mystery. The finale confesses that you can never regain what you've lost, and the world of novelty will always be the domain of children and fools.
