Winter of a Broken Heart

(Nelson Mandrell)



Oh, it seems the sun will never shine

The skies are so gray

And the heart you left broken is lonely

The winter wind blows through the trees

And with the song I sing

I long for the days you loved me only.



Sorrow lingers

Shadows only fill the empty room

Nights of lonely cries unheard

In the winter of a broken heart.



Oh, the nights will never be the same

As when the love was new

Young hearts so tender in their yearning

But seasons change and lovers too

And winter's twice as cold

But the fire in one heart is always burning.



Sorrow lingers

Shadows only fill the empty room

Nights of lonely cries unheard

In the winter of a broken heart.



--- Instrumental ---



Though a million hours pass the time

And lonely is the pain

And what was love is just a spell that's broken

So blow the wind and freeze the rain

And try like lover's do

Seems our hearts have never really spoken.



Sorrow lingers

Shadows only fill the empty room

Nights of lonely cries unheard

In the winter of a broken heart...
