Song For A Winter's Night
Embracing Love's Warmth on a Winter's Night
Lyrics
The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top
The lamp's flame is low on my table, creating a dim atmosphere.
The snow is softly falling
Snow is falling gently, adding to the quiet ambiance.
The air is still in the silence of my room
The air is calm, and there is a stillness in my room.
I hear your voice softly calling
I hear your voice softly calling, possibly in my thoughts or memories.
If I could only have you near
Expressing a desire to have you close.
To breathe a sigh or two
Wishing to share a sigh or two with you.
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
Finding happiness in holding the hands of the person I love.
On this winter night with you
Specifically, during this winter night, wanting to be with you.
The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead
Smoke is rising, creating shadows, possibly symbolizing the passing of time.
My glass is almost empty
The glass is nearly empty, suggesting a sense of longing or emptiness.
I read again between the lines upon each page
Reading between the lines of a written message, perhaps a letter or note.
The words of love you sent me
Reflecting on words of love received from you.
If I could know within my heart
Expressing a wish to understand if you are feeling lonely as well.
That you were lonely too
Finding happiness in holding hands if you, too, feel lonely.
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
Reiterating the joy of holding hands with the one I love, especially in winter.
On this winter night with you
Repeating the desire to be with you during this winter night.
The fire is dying
The fire is dying, possibly symbolizing the fading warmth or passion.
Now my lamp is growing dim
The lamp's light is dimming, adding to the sense of fading warmth.
The shades of night are lifting
The night is ending, and the darkness is lifting.
The morning light steals across my window pane
The morning light is appearing, bringing a new day.
Where webs of snow are drifting
Describing a wintry scene with drifting snow webs.
If I could only have you near
Expressing the desire to have you close once again.
To breathe a sigh or two
Wishing to share sighs and closeness with you.
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
Finding happiness in holding the hands of the one I love.
On this winter night with you
Reiterating the joy of holding hands, specifically on this winter night.
And to be once again with you
Expressing a longing to be with you once again.
