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

Oh the snow fell without a break
Buffalo died in the frozen fields you 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
