SONG FOR A WINTER'S NIGHT:Gordon Lightfoot. Top of the charts in 1964. #1.

^GThe lamp is ^Dburnin' low up^Emon my table ^Ctop, ^GThe snow is ^Dsoftly ^Gfalling. ^D ^GThe air is ^Dstill within the ^Emsilence of my ^Croom, ^GI hear your ^Dvoice softly ^Gcalling.

#2.

If I could ^Donly ^Chave you ^Dnear, ^BmTo breathe a ^Emsigh or ^Amtwo,^D ^GI would be ^Dhappy just to ^Emhold the hands I ^Clove.. ^Gon this ^Dwinter's night with ^Gyou.^D

#3. The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead, My glass is almost empty. I read again between the lines upon the page, The words of love you sent me. #4. If I could know within my heart That you were lonely too I would be happy just to hold the hands I love Upon this winter night with you. #5. The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim The shades of night are lifting The mornin' light steals across my windowpane Where webs of snow are drifting. #6. If I could only have you near To breathe a sigh or two I would be happy just to hold the hands I love

^GAnd to be ^Donce again with ^B7you. ^Gand to be ^Donce again with with ^Gyou.

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
