Winter's Wandering Songs by Cordelia Cross Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We step into the twilight with our scarves pulled tight and high
Breath drifting like soft lantern smoke curling toward the sky
Someone hums a starting note, another joins the sound
Soon the winter night itself feels brighter all around
[Chorus]
Echo lanterns glowing as the voices rise
Sending little sparks of joy into the quiet skies
Side by side we wander where the cold winds steer
Turning every corner with a song of cheer
[Verse 2]
Frozen gates swing open as our melodies unfold
Homes that seemed forgotten now shimmer warm and bold
Children lean on windowsills, wide eyes shining through
Hearing tunes they recognize yet feeling something new
[Chorus]
Echo lanterns glowing as the voices rise
Sending little sparks of joy into the quiet skies
Side by side we wander where the cold winds steer
Turning every corner with a song of cheer
[Verse 3]
Snow begins to gather in a dance around our feet
Each flake drifting gently to the rhythm of the beat
By the time the night is over, hearts feel light and clear
Proof that even simple songs can shift the atmosphere
[Final Chorus]
Echo lanterns glowing as the voices rise
Sending little sparks of joy into the quiet skies
Side by side we wander where the cold winds steer
Turning every corner with a song of cheer
