Winter Song lyrics

Song information

Artist: Harry Chapin
Album: Sniper & Other Love Songs

Lyrics

When the summer fled past my window
And autumn's chill was in the air
There was a special kind of lonesome
'Round that ending time of year
When the leaves fell
And they drifted 'neath the trees that soon were bare
I felt that wind blow
Ever colder
And suddenly
You were there
We laughed and scuffled
While the snow fell
And the cold gave your cheecks a glow
And in your arms come evening
A kind of peace I know
Often I'd wake at midnight
Mid some icy winter storm
And then I would find you
Beside me
And you made the night seem so warm
Now I go my way
And you go your way
Now that the winter's come and gone
But somehow
With the springtime
Your golden warmth still lingers on
