Song For A Winter s Night chords
Gordon Lightfoot
From the album âThe Way I Feelâ â 1967
Alternate version on album âGordâs Goldâ â 1975
Capo II
[INTRO]
[VERSE 1]
The lamp is burnin low upon my table top,
The snow is softly falling
The air is still within the silence of my room,
I hear your voice softly calling
[CHORUS]
If I could only have you near,
To breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love,
Upon this winter night with you
[VERSE 2]
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
[CHORUS]
If I could know within my heart,
That you were lonely too
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love,
Upon this winter night with you
[VERSE 3]
The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim,
The shades of night are liftin
The morning light steals across my windowpane,
Where webs of snow are driftin
[CHORUS]
If I could only have you near,
To breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love,
Upon this winter night with you,
And to be once again with you
