[Verse 1]
G D/F# Em C
The lamp is burning low u - pon my table top,
G/B D/A G *
The snow is softly falling,
G D/F# Em C
The air is still within the silence of my room,
G/B D/A G *
I hear your voice softly calling!

[Verse 2]
G D/F# Cadd9 D
If I could only ...have you near,
D/C Bm Em Am D
To breathe a sigh or two------,
G * D/F# Em C
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love,
G/B D/A G/F Em7 G5
On this winter night with you------!

G/F Em7 G5

[Verse 3]
G D/F# Em C
The smoke is rising in the shadows over - head,
G/B D/A G
My glass is almost empty,
G D/F# Em C
I read a - gain between the lines upon each page,
G/B D/A G *
The words of love you sent me!

[Verse 4]
G D/F# Cadd9 D
If I could know with - in my heart,
D/C Bm Em Am D
That you were lonely too-------,

On this winter night with you------!

Hoo---oo, oo, oo----!

[Verse 5]
G D/F# Em C
The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim,
G/B D/A G *
The shades of night are lifting,
G * D/F# Em C
The morning light steals a - cross my window - pane,
G/B D/A G *
Where webs of snow are drifting!

[Verse 6]
G D/F# Cadd9 D
If I could only ...have you near,
D/C Bm Em Am D
To breathe a sigh or two-------,
G D/F# Em C
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love,

On this winter night with you------!
