Winter Night

The snow was falling, falling slow
From land to land
A candle flamed upon a table
A candle flamed

As midges of the summer swarm
Against a flame
Outside, the snowflakes swarmed
Against the window pane

The blizzard modeled on the glass
White spears and arrows
A candle flamed upon a table
A candle flamed

And soft along lighted ceilings
Shadows lingered
Shadows of crossed arms, crossed legs
Crossed destinies

Two little shoes fell to the floor
Fell with a thud
A candle shed its waxen tears
Upon the dress

The windy, snowy darkness
Lay in great, white mist
A candle flamed upon a table
A candle flamed

The draft then shuttered in the breeze
The fever of temptation
Raised up a cross of angel wings
Upon a wall

Day through day, through February
The snow came down
A candle flamed upon a table
A candle flamed
