It was a coldest day in December

A day I always will remember

I looked into your eyes

And faced my deepest fear

I had drifted to far

Far from you my dear

CHORUS:

So how could I

Turn away from the one I love

How could I

When I know what my heart's made of

Could it be

That your soul lives inside of me

How could I ever say good-bye

Why was I so afraid to tell her

That for her I would fight a thousand soldiers

But just like an angry child

I kept my feelings locked inside

There were rivers of tears

But the one thing I knew in my heart

Is that I was fading much too fast

So how could I

Turn away from the one I love

How could I

When I know what my heart's made of

Could it be

That your soul lives inside of me

How could I ever say good-bye

Why was I so afraid to tell her

That for her I would fight a thousand soldiers

But just like an angry child

I kept my feelings locked inside

There were rivers of tears

But the one thing I knew in my heart

Is that I was fading much too fast
