Winter's Heart lyrics

Everyone's gone home now

The party of the eve now over

And soon the dawn will ponder,

For now I'll try for bed.

But something keeps me on the edge

Something welling up, unsaid

Mere whispers fall on snow as if to rest

Beautiful, it's beauty that

Takes hold of me in the silence

And it sings to me

Warm as true love's embrace

A lullaby

As the city sleeps beside

Evergreen in January

Here I am full of friends—

Winter's heart, quiet mood,

gathering.

All the years are calling,

small lifetimes, fully realized,

inside my mind this winter,

to warm the months ahead

Crazy laughter, wind swept tears,

family, all those held dear,

They whisper through the past to bid me rest

Beautiful, it's beauty that

Takes hold of me in the silence

And it sings to me

Evergreen in January

Here I am full of friends,

Winter's heart, quiet mood, restless heart, something good

Winter's heart, quiet mood

gathered near.
