The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top
|
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
|
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
|
Upon 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 the 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
|
Upon this winter 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 whims 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
|
And to be once again with with you
|
To be once again with with you
|
