My Reliable Windbreak

The wind is piercing through my skin

It stings so much, the tears begin

Knit hat, muffler, gloves on tight

But I can’t seem to win this fight

How many layers do I need to be warm?

To weather through this winter storm

But your back is broad, so wide and true

Maybe it's the perfect windbreak, too?

The clouds are gathering in the sky

Snow starts falling, soft and shy

I’m bundled up, so round and tall

I won't let the snowman beat me at all!

But your back is broad, so wide and true

Is it okay if I... hold onto you?

Just a little hug from behind

If you wouldn't really mind

The snow is dyeing the world in white

Dyeing my heart in the pale moonlight

I’m back to the days when I first fell in love

With a racing heart and the stars above

Your back is broad, so strong and steady

I’m falling for you, and I’m finally ready

To be sheltered by your side

Piercing wind and falling snow

I’ve got nowhere else to go

Just let me stay right here

Behind your big, warm back

Feeling the heat

Feeling the love
