Lyrics Alms - Luciana Souza
My
heart
is
what
it
was
before,
A
house
where
people
come
and
go;
But
it
is
winter
with
your
love,
The
sashes
are
beset
with
snow.
I
light
the
lamp
and
lay
the
cloth,
I
blow
the
coals
to
blaze
again;
But
it
is
winter
with
your
love,
The
frost
is
thick
upon
the
pane.
I
know
a
winter
when
it
comes:
The
leaves
are
listless
on
the
boughs;
I
watched
your
love
a
little
while,
And
brought
my
plants
into
the
house.
I
water
them
and
turn
them
south,
I
snap
the
dead
brown
from
the
stem;
But
it
is
winter
with
your
love,—
I
only
tend
and
water
them.
There
was
a
time
I
stood
and
watched
The
small,
ill-natured
sparrows'
fray;
I
loved
the
beggar
that
I
fed,
I
cared
for
what
he
had
to
say,
I
stood
and
watched
him
out
of
sight;
Today
I
reach
around
the
door
And
set
a
bowl
upon
the
step;
My
heart
is
what
it
was
before,
But
it
is
winter
with
your
love;
I
scatter
crumbs
upon
the
sill,
And
close
the
window,—and
the
birds
May
take
or
leave
them,
as
they
will.
