First Frosty Morning

Lyrics

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Verse 1]
The breath in the air, a silver gleam
The world outside, a frozen dream
First frosty morning, a quiet start
A special lesson, held in the heart
Down by the woodpile, tall and neat
He led me gently on chilly feet
Grandpa's hands, all weathered and worn
Showed me the stack for when winter is born

[Chorus]
On this first frosty morning, clear and cold
A story whispered, ancient and old
Of keeping warm when the north wind blows
The strength in each log, as winter grows
Grandpa's wisdom, a steady hand
Building warmth across the land
A country melody, soft and true
For the winter's stack, and me and you

[Verse 2]
He picked a log, just right and round
"See how it settles, without a sound?"
"Against the next, a perfect fit
No gaps, no spaces, not a single bit"
He spoke of patience, of strength and care
Of burdens shared, beyond compare
Each piece a promise, solid and deep
The family hearth, secrets to keep

[Chorus]
On this first frosty morning, clear and cold
A story whispered, ancient and old
Of keeping warm when the north wind blows
The strength in each log, as winter grows
Grandpa's wisdom, a steady hand
Building warmth across the land
A country melody, soft and true
For the winter's stack, and me and you

[Bridge]
He taught me rhythm, the steady sway
How to embrace the coming day
The chill might bite, the snow might fall
But we'll be ready, standing tall
With logs stacked high and spirits bright
We'll welcome winter's gentle light

[Chorus]
On this first frosty morning, clear and cold
A story whispered, ancient and old
Of keeping warm when the north wind blows
The strength in each log, as winter grows
Grandpa's wisdom, a steady hand
Building warmth across the land
A country melody, soft and true
For the winter's stack, and me and you

[Outro]
The smoke will rise, a comforting sigh
Beneath a cold and starry sky
Thankful for lessons, learned and deep
The promises that old memories keep.
