In winter when the air gets cold
And breathing causes white ghosts to appear
They light up the city with Christmas trees
And strings that hang across the street
From telephone pole to telephone pole
So that when I'm driving home at night
Tired frustrated and pinned down by spite
I'm reminded of your love
Unlike these things will never change
Or fade or pass away
And breathing causes white ghosts to appear
They light up the city with Christmas trees
And strings that hang across the street
From telephone pole to telephone pole
So that when I'm driving home at night
Tired frustrated and pinned down by spite
I'm reminded of your love
Unlike these things will never change
Or fade or pass away

I believe this song is about what it says its about. It's about seeing how happy the world is around you- how perfectly everyone else's lives are comming along and yet you feel lost. Until, you remember, that you have one thing that one change like the seasons or the holidays- something eternally great that few have- someone to love and be loved by. It's a simple song of realizing that even the strongest feelings of melancholy pale in the light of love.
My favorite part about Mineral's songwriting is that it can be personal, regardless of you particular religious affiliation. As an atheist teenager, I pictured my father.
still haunting
still amazing
who knows?
But personally, i'd like to interpret it as someone in a relationship, like what sean7711 said.
