The lamp is burnin' low
Upon my table top
The snow is softly falling
The air is still in the silence
Of my room
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 the page
The words of love
That 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 now
My lamp is growing dim
The shades of night are lifting
The morning light
Steals across my window pane
Where webs of snow
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
To be once again
With you
Ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
