Song For A Winter's Night Lyrics - Rarities, B-sides, And Other Stuff - Sarah Mclachlan

The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top 

The snow is softly fallin' 

The air is still in the silence of my room 

I hear your voice softly callin' 

If I could only have you near 

To breathe a sigh or two 

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love 

On this winter's night with you 

The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead 

My glass is almost empty 

I read again between the lines upon each page 

The words of love you sent me 

If I could know within my heart 

That you were lonely too 

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love 

On this winter's night with you 

The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim 

The shades of night are liftin' 

The mornin' light steals across my windowpane 

Where webs of snow are driftin' 

If I could only have you near 

To breathe a sigh or two 

I would be happy just to hold the hands I love 

On this winter's night with you 

And to be once again with with you
