One Night in December

One Night in December 
The cookies were still
warm and gooey
From the old ovens embrace
One Night in December

the Snow was dropping down to the Earth
 like tears of a poor Maiden's distress

One Night in December

I woke up from the sandman's hold 
to reap the spoils nights grip held so tight

One Night in December

A lump of coal black like my heart 
fueled the furnace 
my joyous ambition once occupied
