These nights are getting cold
As winters hand unfolds
But there's something warm to hold
Deep in your heart of gold
This road I walk is dark
But your presence lights up the path
I close the door on my past
And feel the hope it has cast
Home, where I lay
Hoping that you always stay
Home, where I show
That I'll never let you go
Can you feel it when I take your hand
Can you see that you help me stand
Can you tell all my best laid plans
Lie in you
Can you feel it when I touch your skin
Can you see the burning light within
Can you tell that you've got my heart
It lies in you
One day we'll both be old
With our story all but told
Just how it unfolds
Is in the hands we hold
I'll spend the rest of my time
Searching for pebbles that shine
I'll live in play, not rewind
And dance with the devils design
