Winter's Life

The leaves have gone brown

Fallen to the ground

The mist that wets my face

Will surely freeze by sundown

As sure as winter comes

It drags with it its sadness

Another year gone by

One less left to live

I have often spent Christmas

Searching for reasons

That I never found

I never dreamed I would

But all has changed

I feel a new heartbeat

In your eyes

I'll always see winter's life

You are the warmth I feel

Through the coldest December

The single ray of sun

That shines on a cloudy day

You are the proof that heaven answers

The fire to warm my freezing hands

And the color on the grayest of days

All has changed

I feel a new heartbeat

In your eyes

I'll always see winter's life

Love rain down on me

Erase the weight of the world

Climb upon my shoulder

You are the weight of my world

I'll suffer the wind

And with each shiver remember

Winter is not the end, only a reminder

That a brilliant day is on the horizon

And as each year goes by

So builds my treasure of love
