From SPCodex, The Smashing Pumpkins wiki
"My Love Is Winter" is a song by The Smashing Pumpkins off of their 2012 studio album, Oceania. The song was originally intended to be a ballad, but the band felt it lacked potential with the ballad sentiment. In a 2012 interview with MusicRadar, Corgan stated the song gives "a few nods" to the progressive rock band Yes.[1]

Again, this is a song where the uniqueness of the band's contributions stand out. Jeff plays some really cool, floaty, almost Echo & The Bunnymen-type lines. Nicole is super-active melodically, playing a nice counterpoint to the vocal. And Mike is a fantastic groove drummer.

Lonely draw
Sides grow dimmer
Spellbound all
I waste the hour
My love is winter
My love is lost
Silent fog
Let's pass and wither
From the cold that saws me flat
My love is winter
My love is lost
There is love enough for the both of us
There is more than prayers made to be with you
My love is lost
My love is winter
My love is lost
My love is winter
There is love enough for the both of us
There are more than prayers of you
Sacred hold in my mirror
Were you told there is no rest?
My love is winter
My love is lost
There is love enough for the both of us
There is love enough
There is love
There is love enough for the both of us
There is love enough
There is love
There is love, love, love...
