Grey skies, white snow
Your footsteps down the marble road
Every soldier lowers their eyes
When you walk into my life
Cold hands, tired soul
I spent years without a home
Then your voice reached through the dark
Like sunlight through a storm
I was raised to never need
To never bend, to never bleed
But somehow your gentle touch
Undid the man I used to be
When you smile at me slowly
The whole winter melts away
And the silence of this empire
Doesn’t feel so cold and grey
If loving you is weakness
Then I never want to heal
Because nothing in this frozen world
Has ever felt this real
Late nights, soft rain
Your head resting on my shoulder again
All the ghosts inside these walls
Disappear when you call my name
Gold lights, warm wine
Your fingers tangled into mine
I used to pray for victory
Now I only pray you’re mine
They still see a heart of ice
A man too dangerous to love
But you look at me like I deserve
Something gentle after blood
When you smile at me slowly
The whole winter melts away
And the silence of this empire
Doesn’t feel so cold and grey
If loving you is weakness
Then I never want to heal
Because nothing in this frozen world
Has ever felt this real
Maybe heaven sent you here
To save what war could never kill
Because every broken part of me
Grows quieter when you’re still
When you smile at me softly
I forget the wars I knew
And for one small peaceful moment
This lonely world feels new
If tomorrow steals the kingdom
If the stars all lose their light
I would still choose your love
For the rest of every life
