You wandered in through the doors last night With a warm smile and bright eyes A welcome presence when the snows falls down So heavily across this town You ask me for a room and a warm cup of something And we catch each other's glimpse You see my cheeks turn red and you laugh a bit I stumble over and I grab your key How'd you end up here of all places Dumb luck or destiny The weather beats against the windows Punctuating our empathy And where'd you come from anyway You look so tired why don't you stay A while (a while) A while (a while) A while (a while) A while (a while) We talked for hours as the days went by With a snowstorm roaring outside You told me all about the journey here And all the sights you saw all across the world And while we're talking oh our hands drift closer Soon we're right there face to face And when we kiss it's like the snow melts away So we keep each other warm by the bedside How'd you end up here of all places Dumb luck or destiny You shiver underneath your blankets I pull you closer come next to me The winter weather never lets up Maybe we'll bundle up and stay A while (a while) A while (a while) A while (a while) A while (a while) Maybe you could stay here just a little longer And make the time pass slower Maybe you could make this last forever And you could be my lover Don't let the sun go and take you away We could go together Maybe we could make this last forever And I could be your lover
