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

Oh I never was good, with romantic words
So the next few lines, come really hard
Don't have much, but what I've got is yours
Except of course, my steel guitar

Ha, 'cause I know you don't play, but I'll teach you one day
Because I love ya

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 you down

No mandolin wind, couldn't change a thing
Couldn't change a thing, no no
Ooh-hoo-hoo

Lada-dada, la-da, lada-dada
Lada-dada, da-n-dada

The coldest winter, in almost fourteen years
Could never, never change your mind, yeah
Ooh-hoo-ooh
And I love ya
Yes indeed, and I love ya
And I love ya
Lordy I love ya
Ooh-hoo
And I love ya
Lord, I love ya
