A Cold Winter's Night

 

It was a cold winter's night

I was lost,

So far from you

It was a cold winter's night

What could I do

Blinded by life's pain

I tried to call out your name

Wandering through the night

Oh where were you

When I have nowhere to run

Tell me how can I hide

Still where were you

With no place to turn

I was dropped down to my knees

That's when I learned about the truth

With nowhere to hide

I was tossed down to my knees

That's when I learned about the truth

 

People will come and

People will go

What shines from their hearts

Is the truth

Once I cast aside these eyes

Used to judge this world I see

It was then I found you

Stripped of all I know

All I could do was let go

I spent a cold winter's night with you

Camped around your fire

I lost all my desires

What could I do

With nowhere to turn

I was dropped down to my knees

That's when I learned about the truth

With nowhere to run

I was tossed down to my knees

That's when I learned about the truth

 

It's been too many years

So often lost along the way

Too many years

So far from you

Down by the riverside

I took my drink and wondered why

Why I hid from you

Now I stand before your eyes

My life's fears are no disguise

Thank you God for the truth

You filled my heart with love

Can there ever be too much

Love's the naked truth

With nowhere to turn

I was dropped down to my knees

That's when I learned about the truth

You filled my heart with love

Can there ever be too much

Love's the naked truth

With noplace to run

I was tossed down to my knees

That's when I learned about the truth

I had noplace left to hide

So I dropped down to my knees

That's when I found the naked truth

I had noplace left to hide

So I dropped down to my knees

That's when I found the naked truth

Oh love's the naked truth

Oh love's the naked truth
