Song for a Winter's Night

The lamp is burnin' low upon my tabletop
The snow is softly fallin'
The air is still within the silence of my room
I hear your voice softly callin'

If I could only have you near
To breathe a sigh or two
Oh, then I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
On this winter's night with you

The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead
My glass is almost empty
I read again between the lines upon the page
The words of love you sent me

If I could know in my heart
That you were lonely too
Oh, then I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
On this winter's night with you

The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim
The shades of night are liftin'
The mornin' light steals across my windowpane
Where webs of snow are driftin'

If I could only have you near
To breathe a sigh or two
Oh, then I, I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
To be once again with with you, oh

On this winter's night with you
On this winter's night with you, ooh, oh
