Winter Stories

(album: Winter Stories - 2019)

I feel a shiver through the curtain
There's silver tracery on the pane
And all I think I know for certain
Is somehow, some way
The light will come again

Now the yellow moon is staring
Like a lantern through the trees
And I have reached the point of daring
To love you, love you
My restless heart at ease

I'll pull the covers up around my shoulders
Feed the fire with my fading fears
Some winter stories foretell a storm
Some winter stories can make you warm

There's a chapter in the embers
And a chapter in the frost
And what the healing night remembers
Is mostly what I've won
Not what I have lost

So I'll pull the covers up around my shoulders
And feed the fire with my fading fears
Some winter stories foretell a storm
Some winter stories can keep you warm

One last flicker of old sorrow
One last page to turn, and then
I'll tell a newborn tale tomorrow
Of winter stories
How the light has come again
