I found myself at winter

In a far more different place

I saw the lights and the fireplace

And all the kids at play

I heard the sound of their sweet laughter

And it melted my heart inside

I saw the food upon the table

Along with the beer and wine

And I saw my family happy

And life for them was fine

And that made me feel so good as I closed my eyes that night

And they found me when the snow thawed

Curled up sleeping in my box

Hard times had befallen me and my family like my life I lost.
