The smoke above my chimney's
Pouring fast with the fires rage
And I'm sulking like a child
Itâ??s pathetic for my age
The snow is softly falling
And the street lamps are a-glow
It should feel like it is Christmas
But it just isn't so
I could stay awake for hours
And pray that you'd appear
I could laugh at an old letter
That you wrote me just last year
But the wind is coming strong
And a flurry too I'm told
It's a miracle that life could exist
In all this cold
What keeps us warm in the night
When we're all alone?
I'm not feeling alright
Laying on my own
In the darkness of night
Will love ever grow?
With the shortage of light
Beneath all the snow
The tree is strung and tall
And everything's the same
Because it's just like every year
Now I'm all that remains
The shirt that you gave me
Is battered out and worn
But it's all that keeps me
Bright in this grey and violent storm
What keeps us warm in the night?
When we're all alone?
I'm not feeling alright
Laying on my own
In the darkness of night
Will love ever grow?
With the shortage of light
Beneath all the snow
The icy clouds will surely change to summer's glow
But I'd do anything for, one last winters kiss with you
What keeps us warm in the night?
When we're all alone?
I'm not feeling alright
Laying on my own
In the darkness of night
Will love ever grow?
With the shortage of light
Beneath all the snow
In the darkness of night
Will love ever grow?
With the shortage of light
