Footprints in the Snow
[Verse 1]
First time when you looked at me
You tried to hide but I could see
A special beauty in your eyes
Passion flying like a spark
Like an arrow to the mark
I feel it sting my jealousy

[Chorus 1]
Before you know there's footprints in the snow

[Verse 2]
Desire, like a river, flows
Where it comes from no one knows
Love, just like a flower, grows
And then God only knows
It comes down like a guillotine

[Chorus 2]
Now I feel the rain
Of love torn by a hurricane
One night eclipsed the sun
How deep still waters run
How deep they go like footprints in the snow

[Verse 3]
Take my love into your breast
Commit my spirit to the test
You will see him like a knight
His armour gleams
We'll fly upon his angel's wings
Above the clouds in rainbow rings
We can sail a ship of dreams
[Chorus 3]
If you will take my hand
We can cross this desert made of sand
We can break in through the ice
And feel the wind of paradise
We'll feel it blow our footprints in the snow

[Verse 4]
Anytime you feel alone
Just raise your hand, pick up the phone
Take in my number, there I'll be
If one day your stars won't shine
I will give you some of mine
Cause they could fall so easily

[Chorus 3]
If you will take my hand
We can cross this desert made of sand
We can break in through the ice
And feel the wind of paradise
We'll feel it blow our footprints in the snow

[Outro]
We both know there's footprints in the snow
