Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the rain came, I thought you'd leave
'Cause I knew how much you loved the sun
But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm
Through the darkest nights, I've ever known
If the mandolin wind couldn't change a thing
Then I know I love ya
[Verse 2]
Oh, the snow fell without a break
Buffalo died in the frozen fields, ya know
Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years
I couldn't believe you kept a smile
Now I can rest assured, knowing that we've seen the worst
And I know I love ya
[Verse 3]
Oh, I never was good with romantic words
So the next few lines come really hard
I don't have much, but what I've got is yours
Except, of course, my steel guitar
'Cause I know you don't play, but I'll teach you one day
Because I love ya
[Verse 4]
I recall the night we knelt and prayed
Noticing your face was thin and pale
I found it hard to hide my tears
I felt ashamed, I felt I'd let ya down
No mandolin wind couldn't change a thing
Couldn't change a thing, no, no
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Outro]
The coldest winter in almost fourteen years
Could never, never change your mind, yeah
Oh
And I love ya, yes, indeed, I love ya
And I love ya, Lordy, I love ya
Woo-hoo
And I love ya, Lord, I love ya
