This song is about being in love with someone who you help through the hard times (the cold winter). You're saying that you'll always be there for them to protect them from harm (hand on your heart/I won't let it skip a beat). You know that they'll protect you too (hand on my heart/you won't let it skip a beat) and you trust them. They're the only person who really knows who you are and you feel safe with them. You're promising them that you'll never leave/hurt them even through the bad times (nights will come and go).
I think it's simplicity makes the song so good and I like the way there's an emphasis on "the cold winter" because it really creates that atmosphere.
