The lyrics so meaningfully describe a 'lost love'. There is no reason given for the loss as it does not matter. The winter wind and memories are the only certainty.
Lyrics
Winter's come again
It brings a cold North wind
Darkness closes in
It falls outside my door
Another night begins
I look for you once more
I miss your gentle touch
Breath upon my skin
I miss the warm embrace
A lover and a friend
We dance by firelight
Shadow on the wall
I wake alone, in the morning light
Snow begins to fall
The day you came to me
Like the wind so free
Like a morning sun
Light upon my door
You were the promise of
A shelter from the storm
Oh, your gentle touch
Breath upon my skin
Oh, the warm embrace
A lover and a friend
We dance liked lovers dance
Shadow on the wall
We wake alone in the morning light
Snow begins to fall
On a cold dark winter's day
You were called away
Darkness closes in
Falls outside my door
As the night begins
I wait for you once more
Then I'll feel your gentle touch
Breath upon my skin
I'll feel the warm embrace
A lover and a friend
And then I hear your voice
You've come to me again
I dance across the floor
Open the door
It's only just the wind...
Winter's come again
