Lyrics
Lights went out, the snow came down Quiet over the sleepy town One small candle on the sill Wind outside is standing still Hold me close, hold me close Snowflakes in the candlelight Hold me close, hold me close Nothing's wrong on a night like this Flakes arrive and melt away Never stay, but who can say We don't need the world to stay We have this and that's okay Hold me close, hold me close Snowflakes in the candlelight Hold me close, hold me close Nothing's wrong on a night like this Blanket round our shoulders tight Radio gone, we hum all night Your hand warm and my head low Swaying slow, so slow Let it fall and let it go Let it melt and let it flow Love is warm when the power is low Hold me close, hold me close Snowflakes in the candlelight Hold me close, hold me close Nothing's wrong on a night like this Hold me close Hold me close
