  • There's a fire burning bright
    At our house tonight
    Slow music playing
    And soft candlelight
    On her lips I keep tasting
    The warm red wine
    I'm there in her arms
    But it's all in my mind

    The snow is piled high on the highway tonight
    I'm a ship lost at sea on this ocean of white
    Eighteen wheels anchored somewhere out of Dover
    I wish I could hold her
    Instead of huggin' this old cold shoulder

    This old highway
    Is like a woman sometimes
    She can be your best friend
    But she's the real jealous kind
    She's the lady that leads me
    To the life I dream of
    She's the mistress that keeps me
    From the ones that I love
    The snow is piled high on the highway tonight
    I'm a ship lost at sea on this ocean of white
    Eighteen wheels anchored somewhere out of Dover
    I wish I could hold her
    Instead of huggin' this old cold shoulder
    God, I wish I could hold her
    Instead of huggin' this old cold shoulder Writer/s: BLAZY, BROOKS, WILLIAMS
