The wind blows, it howls and cries,
The trees stand bare beneath the skies.
So many suffer just like me,
Who once loved with hearts set free.
The trees stand bare beneath the skies.
So many suffer just like me,
Who once loved with hearts set free.
It’s cold outside, the clouds hang low,
Frost commands the empty glow.
An hour now I've stood my post,
As night descends, a silent ghost.
Another night spent lost in thought,
Of only you and all I’ve sought.
Another night where I still yearn,
For you beside me, your return.
Alone I stand, the bridge is still,
I long for you, my love, I will.
You do not know if I exist,
Or the lonely road my feet have kissed.
