Winter Hearth

[Soft piano chords, faint acoustic guitar fingerpicking]

The steam is rising from a ceramic cup.

I pull the wool blanket a little higher up.

Outside the window, the sky is turning grey.

But inside this room, everything's okay.

Home is where the heart stays warm.

Safe and sound inside the storm.

Home is where the heart stays warm.

Safe and sound inside the storm.

Old wooden floors creak beneath my feet.

The smell of cedar makes the air taste sweet.

I watch the pine trees bowing to the wind.

Finding peace where the busy morning thinned.

Home is where the heart stays warm.

Safe and sound inside the storm.

Home is where the heart stays warm.

Safe and sound inside the storm.[Gentle sleigh bell accents, slow piano fade]

Just you and me.

Safe and sound.

Safe and sound.
