Footprints |
I followed footprints in the snow, |
Never knowing if I was right behind you, |
Looking down no one would know, |
I wasn’t walking hand in hand beside you. |
For your footprints lead the way, |
To a hearth where hearts we made surround you, |
You’re awash in all its glow, |
And I’m still standing in the snow. |
I stood and watched the lights go out, |
While the snowflakes settled all around me, |
And though it filled my heart with doubt, |
Couldn’t move and this is where you found me. |
As our footprints disappear, |
Snow erasing how I came to be here, |
I’ve got nowhere else to go, |
Now you’re standing in the snow. |
Look for understanding in the snow, |
You look just outstanding in the snow, |
Standing in the snow. |
Now it’s almost Christmas Eve, |
And I’m surrounded with the sound of laughter, |
To give is better than to deceive, |
For I received a happy ever after. |
You might have left me in the cold, |
A fitting ending for the fool that I was, |
But you’d be cuddled up alone, |
And I’d still be standing in the snow. |
