( Intro – Clean electric, arpeggiated )
( Verse 1 )
Cold wind’s whisperin’, yeah it cuts right through the night,
But you were smilin’, baby, glowin’ in that pale moonlight.
You took my hand so gentle, pulled me where the wild winds blow,
And suddenly the whole damn world
Felt soft beneath the snow.
The sky was burnin’ silver, trees were ghosts in frozen white,
And your laugh, it hit me harder
Than a storm on a winter’s night.
( Pre-Chorus )
We fell into the silence,
Where the northern shadows grow—
Side by side we carved our wings
Two angels in the snow.
( Chorus – Big and soaring )
Ohhhh, when the winter broke open,
Time was movin’ slow…
And your heartbeat in the darkness
Lit a fire in the cold.
Yeah, if love writes its memories
Where footprints fade below,
Then ours began that night—
Makin’ angels in the snow.
( Verse 2 )
You brushed the frost from my lashes,
Touch so warm it shook my soul,
And everything around us vanished
Like the night lost its patrol.
Your arms wrapped close around me,
Melting every fear I’d known,
And the sky leaned down to watch us,
Two hearts carved in the snow.
( Chorus – Higher, more intense )
Ohhhh, when the winter broke open,
Time was movin’ slow…
And your heartbeat in the darkness
Lit a fire in the cold.
Yeah, if love writes its memories
Where footprints fade below,
Then ours began that night—
Makin’ angels in the snow.
( Bridge )
Rising guitar solo
Ohhhm ohhhh, OHHHHHH!
And I still hear you callin’,
Through the wild December air…
Like a ghost of somethin’ holy,
Like you’re standin’ everywhere…
And if the night grows quiet,
And the cold wind starts to blow—
I’ll be waitin’ where it started,
Where we made angels in the snow…
( Final Chorus – Full power ballad )
Ohhhh, the winter shattered open,
But your love won’t let me go…
Yeah, your touch still burns like sunrise
In the heart of the shadowed cold.
If the world leaves its stories
In the white below—
Then I’ll go back forever
To our angels in the snow.
