Analysis of Wintertime



Wrap up warm, it's cold outside
Icy wind blows through the night
Nights are long, days are short
The fireplace roars, everything is alright
Evergreens covered in a blanket of white
Red roses and chapped lips
Time to curl up with a good book
In the cozy warmth, all troubles fade away
Make the most of it, it's a special thrill
Embrace the winter, it's time to chill
