Lyrics:

Tonight - Written by Greg Connor

The wind is blowing hard tonight
The moon and stars are shining bright
I’m safe and warm by fire light
Looking out my window tonight

Mercury is plummeting
The windblown snow is covering
The places sheltered from the wind
Looking out my window tonight

I gaze between the snow and fire
Left without even one desire
Except for just a minute more
Looking out my window tonight

Very sweet! Simple things really make this song ... like the slightly unexpected (to me, at least) chords at the end of lines 2 & 3, and the way you hold the second-to-last word on the last lines ... those musical choices are perfect.
