Stephen Winston "Winters Breath Warms The Heart" Lyric Video
When you drive out of Steamboat Springs in the winter heading northwest, there is a beautiful ranch along the Elk River which always made me think of the holidays. Big weathered barn, ranch house with smoke rising from the chimney, and acres of pristine ranch land with horses and cattle roaming through the pasture and trees. I would occasionally see a cowboy on his horse at dusk heading home. That picture, burned in my memory, inspired this song "Winters Breath Warms The Heart."
Winter’s Breath Warms the Heart
Written and performed by Stephen Winston
Engineered and produced by Josh Kern
When the snow, gathers, upon your door
And the barn path is frozen and worn
And the horses and cattle make it well known
That you're needed soon to keep them warm
Yes you're needed soon to keep them warm
Chorus
And you know, the winters breath, it warms the heart
As the family, gathers, around that hearth
To celebrate the season, and all that they’ve got
And they feel the winters breath
It warms their heart, it warms their heart, their hear
As you make your way, it’s crisp and it’s cold
And the wind whips the trees, stirring the snow
Glancing at the chimney, it’s billowing smoke
When the work is done, it’s good to be warm
When the work is done, it’s good to be home
Chorus Repeat
