Song for a Winter's Night

The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top Snow is softly fallin' The air is still in the silence of my room I hear your voice softly callin' 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 night with you 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 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 night with you The fire is dying, my lamp is growing dim The shades of night are liftin' The mornin' light steals across my window pane Where webs of snow are driftin' 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 night with you And to be once again with you
