lyrics

The phone rang once in the deep of the night
Answered to silence telling you right
in the room next door,
I am right in the room next door tonight

Sit up in bed at a quarter to two
Bears on his wall they keep calling to you
To come back in, sit right down
and cry again tonight

Roaring fire on a freezing night
Wool sweater warm and your grip so tight
Could never free my memory of the coldest April Day
Now stir the coals in the fireplace
That glow so soft like a baby's face
You move along to another place but you never go away...

Reach for a light at the foot of the bed
Still holding the page of the book that you read
To bring him to dreams when he couldn't sleep
Or keep you awake tonight

Wake to the smell that you'll never forget
Smoldering butt of the old cigarette
Winnie the Pooh with a hold burned through
The ashes blow in the night

Roaring fire on a freezing night
Wool sweater warm and your grip so tight
Could never free my memory of the coldest April Day
Now stir the coals in the fireplace
That glow so soft like a baby's face
You move along to another place but you never go away...
