Analysis of As Cold as the Snow's of Winter
As cold as the winter's snow to my heart,
As bitter as frost bite to my touch,
Women your name is coldness,
Chipping my ego with an ice pick is to much.
Warm your unfaithful heart.
Show you can love me again,
Let warmth melt the rigid you,
Then we might, just might be two.
Let me touch you, hold you,
Let the warmth of me alter your heart,
Melt the immobile frozen you,
Perhaps give us a new start.
