It's the darkest time of year
   Crystal branches everywhere
   As the colours drain away
   You alone are far away
   Leaves of frost upon the trees
   Lovers falling on their knees
   Curtains parting in the night
   Let me in your sweet delight
   Where the garden used to be
   Now a different world I see
   For one second all I know
   Everything is made of snow
   First from white and then to blue
   Pink to purple lost to view
   It's the darkest time of year
   Winter love is almost here
