SONG FOR A WINTER'S NIGHT:Gordon Lightfoot.
Top of the charts in 1964.
#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.
#2.
If I could only have you near,
To breathe a sigh or two,
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love..
on this winter's night with you.
#3.
The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead,
My glass is almost empty.
I read again between the lines upon the page,
The words of love you sent me.
#4.
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.
#5.
The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim
The shades of night are lifting
The mornin' light steals across my windowpane
Where webs of snow are drifting.
#6.
If I could only have you near
To breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
And to be once again with you.
and to be once again with with you.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
