The Hounds Of Winter

Mercury falling I rise from my bed Collect my thoughts together I have to hold my head It seems that she's gone And somehow I am pinned by The hounds of winter Howling in the wind I walk through the day My coat around my ears I look for my companion I have to dry my tears It seems that she's gone Leaving me too soon I'm as dark as December I'm as cold as the man in the moon I still see her face As beautiful as day It's easy to remember Remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound The hounds of winter They follow me down I can't make up the fire The way that she could I spend all my days In the search for dry wood Board all the windows and close the front door I can't believe she won't be here anymore I still see her face As beautiful as day It's easy to remember Remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound The hounds of winter They follow me down A season for joy A season for sorrow Where she's gone I will surely, surely follow She brightened my day She warmed the coldest night The hounds of winter They got me in their sights I still see her face As beautiful as day It's easy to remember Remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound The hounds of winter They harry me down --- The Hounds of Winter - Sting
