lyrics

Oh, wintry nights
The wind burns my face
As I walk alone
Through these hallowed lands
The only light to be seen
Is the glow of the moon
Which is seen from time to time
Gazing through the clouds
The snow is fresh
And delicate to the touch
Just like the flesh
Of an elegant woman
Continuing on
Through the wake of the storm
I must find some place
To rest my bones

It’s getting colder
The usefulness of my clothes
Is beginning to wane
As I grow cold to the bone
My joints are stiffening
My body is trying to give up
But my mind
Will not let it succumb
Oh, how much longer
’Til I find shelter
And can escape this
Merciless winter?
For my body is going
And my will is weakening
As I contemplate
Lying down in the snow

But will there be anywhere
For this old soul to rest?
But will there be anywhere
To shelter me from the cold?
But will there be anywhere
That I can cleanse my body?
But will there be anywhere
That I can call home?

As I continue
I wonder what life has in store
For me in the future
And I am left with two options
I could give up
Lie down in the snow
And wait for the winter
To end my existence
Or I could continue
Fighting this weather
And try to find a kind person
Who’d let me stay the night
Being a man of virtue
I cannot end my life this way
There’s too much more to experience
So I continue on my way

But will there be anywhere
For this old soul to rest?
But will there be anywhere
To shelter me from the cold?
But will there be anywhere
That I can cleanse my body?
But will there be anywhere
That I can call home?
