Lyrics
The snow falls from the sky softly
It falls upon the ground gently
You open up your eyes, take a look around
You hear no sound at all
Your heart beats in your chest smoothly
It calls out to your soul sweetly
You'll never feel this safe in your life again
Here in the winter
And now is the time
To find what you left behind
The innocence you lost
The emotion turned to frost
The wind blows through the trees trembling
It blows across the fields fleeting
You turn and walk away, never looking back
Here in the winter
Here in the winter
Here in the winter
Here in the winter
