Song for a Winter's Night

Gordon Lightfoot

Video

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 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 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 windowpane
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 night with you
And to be once again with you
