Winter boy, born on a snowy daynCame to me on a rainy afternoonnnAnd there'd been summer lovenLove I trusted far too well, got away and winter's spell nHad broke my heart and left me all alonenAnd looking for a home to rest my weary heartnFor just a whilennThen I found it in the smile of a boynA little boy with midnight in his hairnAnd promise in his eyes of days and nights still yet to benDays and nights he'd cling to menFor I am winter's lady and he is winter's childnnThough there be summers yetnAnd the smell of pine comes crying to my heartnStill my joy and my security will lie beside the boy of less impuritynThe little boy with midnight in his hairnAnd diamonds in his eyesnDiamonds made of trust and love for menAnd gleaming at me all the afternoon
