Winter's Tear

(Verse 1) Window pane frosted, wind howls a lonely tune Snow paints the streets white, under a pale winter moon Cup of cocoa steams, warmth can't reach this hollow ache Your picture in my hand, a memory for heartache's sake (Chorus) We built a snowman here, last year with laughing lips Now the flakes fall like tears, on fingertips that used to grip Yours in mine, so tight, against the winter's bite But your love, it couldn't last, through the coldest, darkest night (Verse 2) The fire crackles low, casting shadows on the wall Haunted by your smile, that used to light it all Remember whispered secrets, beneath the Christmas tree Now just empty ornaments, mocking what used to be (Chorus) We built a snowman here, last year with laughing lips Now the flakes fall like tears, on fingertips that used to grip Yours in mine, so tight, against the winter's bite But your love, it couldn't last, through the coldest, darkest night (Bridge) The cocoa's gone cold now, the warmth fades with the light But the memory of your touch, burns oh so very bright Will this winter ever end? Will the sun ever break through? Or am I forever lost, in this lonely shade of blue? (Chorus) We built a snowman here, last year with laughing lips Now the flakes fall like tears, on fingertips that used to grip Yours in mine, so tight, against the winter's bite But your love, it couldn't last, through the coldest, darkest night (Outro) Maybe someday, spring will come, and melt this frozen pain But for now, I'll hold this picture, in the winter's pouring rain
