I would try to keep my faith Even against all the odds I have faced Snows would fall, the garden was laid to rest But from the crystal blanket, a Winters Rose did bloom As I would come to know, you were my friend And you would try to show me that we could hold on Winter nights we spent in speechless conversation In our eyes were lives wed shared, our love was ageless You came to me in winter Showing that my hope could carry on While we share the seasons as their turning May we never see an end to love We would try to keep our faith Even against all the odds we face Turning, turning, turning
