Footprints lyrics

I followed footprints in the snow,
Never knowing if I was right behind you,
Looking down no one would know,
I wasn t walking hand in hand beside you.

For your footprints lead the way,
To a hearth where hearts we made surround you,
You re awash in all its glow,
And I m still standing in the snow.

I stood and watched the lights go out,
While the snowflakes settled all around me,
And though it filled my heart with doubt,
Couldn t move and this is where you found me.

As our footprints disappear,
Snow erasing how I came to be here,
I ve got nowhere else to go,
Now you re standing in the snow.

Look for understanding in the snow,
You look just outstanding in the snow,
Standing in the snow.

[Interlude]

Now it s almost Christmas Eve,
And I m surrounded with the sound of laughter,
To give is better than to deceive,
For I received a happy ever after.

You might have left me in the cold,
A fitting ending for the fool that I was,
But you d be cuddled up alone,
And I d still be standing in the snow.
