I WATCH THE SNOW FLAKES FALLING

LIKE DIAMONDS FROM THE SKY

THE GENTLY KISS THE WINDOWPANE

DISAPPEARING BEFORE MY EYES

WITHIN THEIR QUIET SILENCE

THEY SHOW ME ALL THAT’S PAST HOPES AND WISHES I ONCE HAD

WITHIN MY HEART STILL LAST

WINTER BRINGS AN EMPTINESS

A LONELINESS I FEEL

A MELANCHOLY HEART AND MIND

FROM EVERYTHING THAT`S REAL

I STAND AND WATCH PEOPLE PASS

LIKE ANTS AT A STEADY PACE

BACK AND FORTH DAY AND NIGHT

YET NO ONE SEES MY FACE

INVISIBLE TO THAT ENTIRE WALK WITHIN THEIR LITTLE WORLD

I SPEAK BUT A THOUSAND WORDS BUT NOT ONE OF THEM IS HEARD

DEAF EARS FALL UPON THEM ALL

AMIDST THE MADDING CROWD

STAND HERE WITH A HEART SO NUMB

FROM THIS IS AFROZEN SHROUD

THAT WINTER WINDS HAVE WOVEN

ITS HANDS AN ICY THREAD

ICEICLES HANG BENEATH MY HEART

FROM LOST LOVE THAT HAS BLED

ANOTHER YEAR TO DISAPEAR GONE WITH

ALL THAT`S PAST

I WONDER AS THE SNOWFLAKES FALL HOW LONG WILL WINTER LAST.
