As the Snow Falls

As the snow falls all around us
And the trees have turned white

The candles on the mantel
Flicker brightly in the night

The tree stands in the corner
All lit up in festive light

By the warmth of the embers
We hold eachother tight

As we dance to the music
Of our sweet love tonight
