On winter nights the heart remembers
The warmth if love in glowing embers

When children home and family glowed
Along a distant time passed road

Eyes that gazed so wide and bright
Falling in love and wedding nights

When the world was filled with sacred vows
and the days were only made of now’s

Of a time so filled with life's perfection
Now lost inside a faint reflection.

But time slips bye slowly day by day
Until all is spent and you went away

Now winter nights are all that remain
With distant moments to ease the pain
