Letra
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 - Now Winter Comes Slowly
- The Burning Babe
- Cold Song
Letra
What power art thou who from below Hast made me unwillingly and slow From beds of everlasting snow? See'st thou not how stiff, how stiff and wondrous old, Far, far unfit to bear the bitter cold? I can scarcely move or draw my breath; Let me, let me, let me freeze again to death. - Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming
- Christmas at Sea
- The Snow It Melts the Soonest
- There Is No Rose of Such Virtue
- Soul Cake
Letra
A soul cake, a soul cake, Please, good missus, a soul cake, An apple, a pear, a plum or a cherry, Any good thing to make us all merry. A soul cake, a soul cake, Please, good missus, a soul cake, One for Peter, two for Paul, And three for Him that made us all. God bless the master of this house And the mistress also, And all the little children That round your table grow; The cattle in your stable, The dogs at your front door, And all that dwell within your gates We’ll wish you ten times more. A soul cake, a soul cake… Go down into the cellar And see what you can fi nd; If the barrels are not empty We’ll hope that you’ll be kind; We’ll hope that you’ll be kind With your apple and your pear, And we’ll come no more a-soulin’ Till Christmas time next year. A soul cake, a soul cake… The streets are very dirty, Me shoes are very thin, I have a little pocket To put a penny in; If you haven’t got a penny A ha’penny will do; If you haven’t got a ha’penny God bless you. A soul cake, a soul cake… - Gabriel´s Message
- Cherry Tree Carol
- Lullaby for an Anxious Child
Letra
Hush child Let your mommy sleep in to the night until we rise Hush child Let me soothe the shining tears that gather in your eyes Hush child I won't leave I'll stay with you to cross this Bridge of Sighs Hush child I can't help the look of accusation in your eyes In your eyes The world is broken now All in sorrow Wise men hang their heads Hush child Let your mommy sleep in to the night until we rise Hush child All the strength I'll need to fight, I'll find inside your eyes In your eyes - The Hurdy-Gurdy Man
- You Only Cross My Mind in Winter
