Sarah McLachlan - Song for a Winter's Night lyrics

[Sarah McLachlan - Song for a Winter's Night lyrics]

The lamp is burning low upon my table top
The snow is softly falling
The air is still in the silence of my room
I hear your voice softly calling

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's night with you

The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead
My glass is almost empty
I read again between the lines upon each page
The words of love 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's night with you

The fire is dying, my lamp is growing dim
The shades of night are lifting
The morning light steals across
My window pane
Where webs of snow are drifting

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's night with you
And to be once again with you
