As with all of our Earth project, Winter of My Heart centres on the human impact on the natural world. We wanted to capture many juxtapositions within the music as well as the accompanying video: 'cold' poetic lyricism harshly contrasting with the 'warmer' visuals, highlighting that seasons may no longer be what we imagine them to be, with warmer, wetter and colder seasons affecting us and our planet.

While the theme of global heating is explored in this song metaphorically, the lyrical story uses the lens of a love story that has grown cold, as the storyteller ponders whether too much irreparable damage has been done and if it is too late for their love to recover and be restored.

Lyrics:

In the winter of my heart
Where the icy winds take hold
Again…

When the skies are blue and gold
When my heart was yours to hold
And the winds that sting, long forgotten
Again…

(In the winter of my heart)

Now the skies are flaming coals
And the earth has turned to stone
We've seen this place before
Will we see it again…
Again...
