Lyrics

The wind so fierce,

the snowflakes fair,

and winter’s song

is everywhere.



The air so cold,

the snow so deep;

the hint of spring

so bittersweet.



A stand of bud,

a branch outstretched,

resisting winter’s

icy breath.



The sun now warm,

the air now sweet,

bringing winter’s

slow defeat.



I feel my heart

lift like a song.

My breath returns

in springtime thaw.



Yet breath and life

renew the pain

of never seeing

you again.



I long for winter’s

dreamlike sleep;

my thoughts of you

so bittersweet.
