Winter Winds
As the winter winds litter London with lonely heartsOh the warmth in your eyes swept me into your armsWas it love or fear of the cold that led us through the night?For every kiss your beauty trumped my doubt
And my head told my heart"Let love grow"But my heart told my head"This time noThis time no"
We'll be washed and buried one day my girlAnd the time we were given will be left for the worldThe flesh that lived and loved will be eaten by plagueSo let the memories be good for those who stay
And my head told my heart"Let love grow"But my heart told my head"This time no"Yes, my heart told my head"This time noThis time no"
Oh the shame that sent me off from the God that I once lovedWas the same that sent me into your armsOh and pestilence is won when you are lost and I am goneAnd no hope, no hope will overcome
And if your strife strikes at your sleepRemember spring swaps snow for leavesYou'll be happy and wholesome againWhen the city clears and sun ascends
And my head told my heart"Let love grow"But my heart told my head"This time no"
And my head told my heart"Let love grow"But my heart told my head"This time noThis time no"
