When The Winter's Gone (song For A Stranger)

David Benoit

Pardon me sir, I don't know who you are.

But I think I see something in your eyes

Though I could be wrong.



Winter is here and all the roses lie deep beneath the snow

That's where lovers go to hide from pain and sorrow.

Never for sure when your luck will turn

Waiting out that snowy day

Hope for a cure that someday you'll learn

Why love keeps on going when there's no one there.



Pardon me sir, I think it's up from here.

Take this one from me, one day you'll feel free to

Fly away wherever you want to.

Never can tell where the dawn will break

When you find your shoulder to cry on.

After a spell you won't feel the ache

And you'll forget the corner you've been living in so long.



You'll breathe a sigh and see it's time to move along

Just a little stronger when the winter's gone.

When the winter's gone.
