Tender feelings on a tender day 
Silent snowfall takes me away 
To a place of ice and snow 
A place I dream and glow 

Lukewarm heart would rather be 
Cold inside and feel the freeze
Of icy dreams and winters cold 
Of feelings hot and yearnings bold

Winters warm and winters chill
A touch of kindness and a thrill
Of seeing you within my heart
And sensing you my heart does start 

There is a place and then a time 
There is a feeling so sublime 
It takes the breath and then the soul
It leaves a mark but takes no toll

So snow and frost will not hurt me 
The white cake frosting on the tree 
Will give me peace and gentle sleep
As in your heart I burrow deep

The blue moon light a peaceful hue 
Will warm my body through and through
And you will share my resting place 
For love like this is filled with grace 

Tender love and passion wild 
Will warm me and the gentle child 
I see in you most every day 
I love in you most every way
