A winter rose
So fragile and fair
It's grace and beauty
Beyond compare
Standing strong
Against the cold winter winds
Bending.........
Never breaking
Never giving in.
You remind me so
Of that winter rose
Bending.......
Just a little as those cold winds blow
And like that rose
I shall cut you free
And keep you warm and safe with me
Keep you safe
Within my heart
Until those winter storm clouds part
