The cold wind brushes past my cheek
White flakes begin to fall so weak
I still recall your laughing tone
The days we walked where winds had blown
Footprints erased by frost and haze
Time slips away in silent ways
I turn my gaze up to the sky
Wondering where your soul resides
It’s not the pain that weighs my soul
Just empty spaces soft and slow
I hold the moments that we’ve known
Let quiet memory freely flow
Beneath the winter snow
I whisper words you’ll never know
Though you no longer walk below
Your light still stays where my heart will go
Beneath the winter snow
I feel your breath where cold winds blow
I do not cry for letting go
I give my thanks for all we used to know
I pass the old familiar lane
Where we would watch the snow remain
Your silly jokes your gentle eyes
Are printed deep inside my mind
The world keeps turning day by day
New snow will come and melt away
Yet some things never fade and die
They live within my beating life
It’s not the grief that holds me tight
Just warm remembrance through the night
I keep the stories of our time
Across the silence they still climb
Beneath the winter snow
I whisper words you’ll never know
Though you no longer walk below
Your light still stays where my heart will go
Beneath the winter snow
I feel your breath where cold winds blow
I do not cry for letting go
I give my thanks for all we used to know
Maybe you’re the falling flake
Dancing through the grey
No longer trapped within a frame
Free to drift to stay to play
I won’t wish you back again
I’ll carry all your grace
When snow returns another day
I’ll come and find this peaceful place
Beneath the winter snow
Softly the white will grow
You’re in the wind I know
Where all my fond memories go
