the cat is sleeping
curled up on the bed
nestled soft against your naked breast
and the snow is like a blanket on the earth
pulled up snug against the window ledge
and i feel just like a child again
safe in loving arms
funny
i should be so warm tonight
here in the frozen north
i left my friends in tennessee behind
the southern nights had grown too cold for me
i came here to try to hide my emptiness
didn't figure on your company
and i feel just like a child again
safe in loving arms
funny
i should be so warm tonight
here in the frozen north
and the earth is like a jewel in the dark
it can only shine if love provides a spark
here with you i know that i'm a part
of a light that is reflecting to the stars
the coldest night that winter ever knew
is warmer than the ice of loneliness
and i have known a winter of the heart
and found the summer of your gentleness
and i feel just like a child again
safe in loving arms
funny i should feel so warm tonight
here in the frozen north
i didn't know that it could feel so right
here in the frozen north
