The furnace of my heart

 

The nights were cold and longer

The sky was split with thunder

When I met her in this sad old place

Together we grew warmer

As our love grew much stronger

 Without her my life’s a frozen waste

 

Chorus

Into winter a summer love has come

A woman who has caused the thaw to start

Even when the blizzards rage

It’s never cold in here 

Alaska you can’t drive us two apart

You can’t freeze the furnace of my heart

 

The bitter winds came howling

Like wolves upon the tundra

It’s as desolate as any place can be

But in our little cabin

As snow drifts past the window

A fire is burning for this woman next to me

Chorus

 

Refrain

In her eyes is California

In her hair I feel the sun

Everything about her tells me

Our summer love has just begun

 

The Northern Lights are shining

They fill the skies with wonder
A light of hope in an arctic sea
My love and I belong here
No matter what the weather
We’ll be together for eternity
