Threads Of Light

The morning paper sits unread

Cold coffee in an empty cup

I watched the frost along the pane

Before the town was waking up

I crossed the bridge down by the mill

The river running quiet,

clear

A stranger nodded as we passed Like knowing we are steady here

There is a light we carry on

Through every winter, every storm

Hand in hand across the cold

To keep each other warm (ooh-ooh)

Across the valleys, hill to hill

Old fires kindle in the dark

A thousand lanterns in the breeze Begin with just a single spark

There is a light we carry on

Through every winter, every storm

Hand in hand across the cold

To keep each other warm

To

keep each other warm (hummmm) (hummmm)
