(Verse 1)
The frost is tracing silver lines upon the window pane
The city’s dressed in velvet white to hide away the rain
We’re pulling out the dusty coats and stories from the shelf
A time to give a little more and lose a bit of self.
(Pre-Chorus)
It doesn’t matter where we’ve been
Or all the storms that we have seen
Tonight the world is breathing in.
(Chorus)
’Cause the warmth of the gold in the glow of the night
Is turning the shadows to beautiful light
No diamond could sparkle as bright as your eyes
Under the magic of winter-blue skies
Let the clock stop its ticking, let the North wind blow cold
We’re safe in the warmth of the gold.
(Verse 2)
The scent of pine and memories is floating through the air
A song we haven't heard in years is playing everywhere
The laughter in the hallway is the only sound I need
A little bit of kindness is the only winter creed.
(Bridge)
And when the morning comes around
And silence covers all the ground
We’ll keep this fire burning deep
A promise that we’re gonna keep.
(Chorus / Outro)
’Cause the warmth of the gold...
We’re safe in the warmth of the gold.
Merry Christmas.
