A winter’s Song <br />With its glistens bright <br />And a heart to long <br />Through a starry flight <br />Feelings of dark deep <br />In bluish moon light <br />Hours of yours to keep <br />Of winter's dark night <br /> <br />Hope is within my reach <br />Stealing its sentimental way <br />Something of a heart to teach <br />That brightens up each day <br />So much here to be done <br />With thoughts that don’t stay <br />To carry my feelings on <br />Before they return to gray <br /> <br />A winter’s theme <br />That carries me afar <br />Into a Milky Way dream <br />To catch a wishing star <br />Feelings toward each of you <br />Those now reach the same <br />In winter’s dark dim blue <br />Of yearnings winter’s flame <br /> <br />Refrain: <br />A winter’s Song <br />With its glistens bright <br />And a heart to long <br />Through a starry flight <br />Feelings of dark deep <br />In bluish moon light <br />Hours of yours to keep <br />Of winter's dark night <br /> <br />*(from a lead sheet)<br /><br />Peter S.
