One Hearth's Warming Eve

He'd watch the snow fall
Pretending it all
Would go away
On hearth's warming day
He thought life all for not
But in this season he forgot
The mess he'd made
It would all fade away
But none of it changed the fact
He was broken and still alone
Until he walked by a store window
And a pink figure waved hello

He said he felt his heart leap
Like it been asleep
With that sparkle in her eyes
He could barely breathe
And so he tells the story
Of that pink pony
Who changed his life
One hearth's warming eve

He went inside the store
As she opened the door
He wondered why
This mare caught his eye
They sat down for a while
As they talked he would smile
Until he told
Her he was all alone
But she wouldn't let him feel abandoned
Because no one should spend the holidays alone
They spent hearth's warming together
Making memories he'd never let go

Thirty two years down the road
He had let the past go
But he hadn't forgotten
That beautiful mare from years ago
In a hospital room
His last hearth's warming he knew
He'd never see her again
That dream would never come true
But then from the hall
He heard her call
That sweet familiar voice
She found him after all
She said "I never forgot
The day you walked by the shop
I've spent these thirty two years
Looking for you non-stop"
Tears came to his eyes
As she stood by his side
And promised to stay
Until he had to say goodbye

He said he felt his heart leap
Like it been asleep
With that sparkle in her eyes
He could barely breathe
So this is the story
Of that pink pony
Who changed his life
One hearth's warming eve
