This is a song for my sons for when they understand it 
You know how life is full you know we couldn't plan it 
your dad and I prayed for strength and understanding 
for things we couldn't see or comprehend 

This is a song for you, to carry in your pocket 
take all our love with you in all the paths you walk in 
I can't say your life will always go like it should 
but I can say that God is always good 

and when the cold wind blows like I know it will 
and when you feel alone like I know you will 
and when the cold wind blows like we know it will 

Don't let your love grow 
Don't let your love grow 
Don't let your love grow cold 

This is a song for my sons for when they understand it 
You know how life is full you know we couldn't plan it 
your dad and I prayed for strength and understanding 
for things we couldn't see or comprehend 

This is a song from my heart a small refrain to hold you 
for times when we're apart and I cannot console you 
Be honest with yourself and don't forget to pray 
and read your bible everyday 

and when the cold wind blows like I know it will 
and when you feel alone like I know you will 
and when the cold wind blows like I know it will 

Don't let your love grow 
Don't let your love grow 
Don't let your love grow cold
