Once Upon a Winter's Night...
Swaying gently to the beat
Love making an inner heat
Never wanting it to end
Nothing can break that we can't mend
When my life was filled with light
Free from hate and hurt and spite
When my love could hold me tight -
Once upon a winter's night.
Feeling water pressing near
But he'll be there - I never fear
At the bottom, fathoms down
He's coming, and I'll never drown
When my life was filled with light
Free from hate and hurt and spite
When my love could hold me tight -
Once upon a winter's night
Where is he? How long has he been gone?
Who knew waiting would seem this long?
But maybe he'll win, maybe there'll be bliss
And maybe things will stay like this -
When my life was filled with light
Free from hate and hurt and spite
When my love could hold me tight -
Once upon a winter's night.
"He's dead!" He's dead? No, it can't be
He can't have left us, he can't have left me
Yet through the trauma, grief and all
Memory prevails, and I recall:
When my life was filled with light
Free from hate and hurt and spite
When my love could hold me tight -
Once upon a winter's night...
