He came on a cold winters night

Like a dream to any beholder

With soft blond hair

And gentle blue eyes

And when he smiled at her

Her doubts all melted away

 

She invited him in

The snow was no longer cold

Something special was shared

On that winter night

 

But now that morning has come

He is no longer there

Her heart was filled with despair

Her soul full of pain

 

Now she lives with the hope

That someday he will return

But that hope will never be fulfilled

For he will never return
