Song for a Winter’s Night

[Verse 1]

The lamp is burning low upon my table top

The snow is softly falling

The air is still in the silence of my room

I hear your voice softly calling

[Chorus]

If I could only have you near

To breathe a sigh or two

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love

On this winter's night with you

[Verse 2]

The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead

My glass is almost empty

I read again between the lines upon each page

The words of love you sent me

[Chorus]

If I could know within my heart

That you were lonely too

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love

On this winter's night with you

[Verse 3]

The fire is dying, my lamp is growing dim

The shades of night are lifting

The morning light steals across my window pane

Where webs of snow are drifting

[Chorus]

If I could only have you near

To breathe a sigh or two

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love

On this winter's night with you

And to be once again with you
