it was a coldest day in december
a day i will always remember
i looked into your eyes
and faced my deepest fear
i had drifted too far
far from you my dear
[chorus:]
so how could i
turn away from the one i love
how could i
when i know what my heart's made of
could it be
that your soul lives inside of me
how could i ever say good-bye
why was i so afraid to tell her
that for her i would fight a thousand soliders
but just like an angry child
i kept my feelings locked inside
there were rivers of tears
flowing from her eyes
[repeat chorus]
when you fall in love
you never know how long it lasts
but the one thing i knew in my heart
is that i was fading much too fast
[repeat chorus]
