The  nights are  colder  now
Maybe  I should  close the door
 And anyway the snow  has covered  all your footsteps
 and I  can follow you no more.
 The fire  still burns at night
 My memories are  warm and clear
 But everybody knows  it's hard  to be alone  at this time  of year.
 It was only  a winter's tale just  another winter's tale
 and why  should the world take notice  of one  more love that's failed
 it's a love  that can never be  though it meant  a lot to you  and me
 On a world  wide scale were just  another winter's tale
While  I stand alone
 A bell  is ringing  far away
 I wonder if you hear,  I wonder  if you're listening
 I wonder  where you are today
 Good luck  I wish you well
 for all  that wishes  may be worth
 I hope that love and strength  are with  you for the length
 Of your time  on earth.
 It was only  a winter's tale just  another winter's tale
 and why  should the world take notice  of one  more love that's failed
 it's a love  that can never be  though it meant  a lot to you  and me
 On a world  wide scale were just  another winter's tale
