Winter Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's so cold, baby, it's dark outside
Winter comes creeping in through the night

And it's so hard when I just wanna hold you tight
Breaks my heart, but nothing can break this ice

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Hold on, hold on
Baby, just be strong

[Chorus]
And I will be honest and let you go
This is the reason and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can see
None of your dreams ever have time for me
So this is the reason I let you go
And I will be honest and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can see
None of your dreams ever have time for me

[Verse 2]
And it's so quiet, baby, it's hard to breathe
Black as ink, the silence is deafening
And it's so hard to look into distant eyes
And feel your heart slowly tie away from mine
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So long, so long
Baby, you're long gone

[Chorus]
And I will be honest and let you go
This is the reason and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can see
None of your dreams ever have time for me
So this is the reason I let you go
I will be honest and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can see
None of your dreams ever have time for me

[Bridge]
He-he-he-he-hey
He-he-he-he-hey
He-he-he-he-hey-hey
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

[Outro]
None of your dreams take me with you
None of your dreams let me love you
None of your dreams take me with you
Take me with you, ey ey ey ey
None of your dreams take me with you
None of your dreams let me love you
None of your dreams take me with you
Take me with you, ey ey ey ey
None of your dreams take me with you
None of your dreams let me love you
None of your dreams take me with you
Take me with you, ey ey ey ey
None of your dreams take me with you
None of your dreams let me love you
None of your dreams take me with you
Take me with you, ey ey ey ey
None of your dreams take me with you
None of your dreams let me love you
None of your dreams take me with you
Take me with you
None of your dreams, take me with you
Ooh ooh ooh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
