Lyrics
The sun comes up earlier
The light in the room
Holds the promise of spring and renewal
Though the temperatures plummet
And the wind chill is brittle
In our house there?s plenty of fuel
Nothing can harm our love
Nothing can harm our love
Like the promise of sunlight
That falls from above
Nothing can harm our love
The world news is bleak
The apathy bleaker
There?s a promise of peace called war
Though the numbers keep climbing
And there?s no end in sight
In our house we don?t keep score
Nothing can harm our love
Nothing can harm our love
Like a prayer for compassion
That falls from above
Nothing can harm our love
We hope for a miracle
That winter just ends
That hatred is left at the station
And though you can?t stop that train
By even pulling the cord
At least it shows determination
The night throws a blanket
Over all the earth?s ills
For the comfort and rest that?s required
With sleep comes repair
The body renewed
But these days the world seems so tired
Nothing can harm our love
Nothing can harm our love
Like moonlight on water
That falls from above
Nothing can harm our love
