Why'd I give my love away 

Why'd I call out the unspoken 

Why'd I change what seemed alright 

To bring my love out in the open 

When I socked it away for years 

I guess I'd made a barricade 

And hung my key by the door 

So that's what secrets are for 



There's a storm coming down in the morning 

With a freezing rain to add to our worries 

And I won't speak of these things anymore 

I'll just bury them down in drifts of snow 

Where spring may come to see them grow 



There's a storm coming down from Virginia 

And a woman's heart that yearns for the sun 

And I won't speak of these things anymore 

I'll just bury them down under drifts of snow 

Where spring may come to see them grow
