Collins, Judy - Winter Stories Lyrics

I feel a shiver through the curtain
There's silver tracery on the pane
And all I think I know for certain
Is somehow, some way
The light will come again

Now the yellow moon is staring
Like a lantern through the trees
And I have reached the point of daring
To love you, love you -
My restless heart at ease

I'll pull the covers up around my shoulders
Feed the fire with my fading fears
Some winter stories foretell a storm
Some winter stories can make you warm

There's a chapter in the embers
And a chapter in the frost
And what the healing night remembers
Is mostly what I've won
Not what I have lost

So I'll pull the covers up around my shoulders
And feed the fire with my fading fears
Some winter stories foretell a storm
Some winter stories can keep you warm

One last flicker of old sorrow
One last page to turn, and then
I'll tell a newborn tale tomorrow
Of winter stories -
How the light has come again
