In cold gray of winter I call you near

To see you again, my love does increase.

How frigid it is in this fleeting year

Being near you once more, my one release.

As the dawn breaks darken sky on new day

My love warms, it brightens and grows for thee.

To be with you, at your side, the true way

Near to you, dear to you, closely to me.

Swirling cirrus clouds sway in morning sky

As your soft, sunlit eyes dance in my heart.

I am so drawn to you, I know not why,

On cold winter 'morn both my love begin, start.

In winter's bareness I sing a new song

My love grows, flows and blossoms all along.
