One Long Night

One long night, With wind howling, And frost tapping window panes, We stayed laying on the bed, Staring into each others eyes, With a fire crackling in the fireplace, I smiled a little, When your fingers grazed my face, Or stroked my hair, One long night, In the cover of darkness, And oppressive trees, With wind nipping at the doors, I close my eyes, Letting your fingers trail across my cheek, I open my eyes, Once again you are gone, Nothing but a memory and dream, I am not young like I was then, I am frail, With withered lines on my face, But the thought of you, How soon I will see you again, Makes me smile.
