Snow falls softly on the roof
Quiet streets, a winter truth
Mom" s voice drifting down the hall
Warmth that held me through it all
Every cold night finds a spark
Winter lights inside the dark
Winters we remember stay
Through the quiet, far away
Every faded memory
Returns like snow to carry me
Old boots by the neighbor" s gate
Dad" s coat keeping out the late
Laughing where the lamplights glowed
Footprints fading in the snow
Every cold night finds a spark
Winter lights inside the dark
Winters we remember stay
Through the quiet, far away
Every faded memory
Returns like snow to carry me
Years move on, but still I find
Winter keeps a gentle mind
Winters we remember glow,
Soft and bittersweet below.
Holding memories out of reach,
Yet finding us with gentle speech.
Even as the world turns new,
Winter comes"" and so do you.
