It's winter in Cheyenne The snow's coming down All I can think of Is the way the room sounds The silence is heavy It's bearing me down The shelves are all empty Everything's on the ground I'm a blanket of shivers Frozen in time Your phone doesn't answer Lord knows how I've tried It's the last place your voice could Echo to mine Just like last Christmas When I said goodbye Would it be alright If I were to cry Not for forever Just for a while Thought I could make it You know that I've tried This Christmas present I open tonight It's winter in Cheyenne Wind breathes life to the sky Those diamonds drift down Through the steps of our lives Every glass reflects The dark of the night Put my hand to ice Say one last goodbye Would it be alright If i were to cry Not for forever Just for a while Thought I could make it You know that I've tried This Christmas present I open tonight It's winter in Cheyenne I'm waiting for the light Not for forever Just for a while I'll never forget you No need to try This Christmas present I'll open tonight
