When the dark and cold winterdays Are drawing near And the snow is falling down When the northern winds are howling In remembrance of you
I still see your shining face again Your amazing beauty Always turned this wretch into a man
We assumed it would never end But time was not our friend I cry out in the blackened sky As I watch your beauty die
As I watch you suffer As I watch you scream As I watch you falling down Fading
And I shed a tear For your long lost soul For your fading beauty Never to return
In solitude, I cry alone In my mortality
I dance the final way To my unknown destination A gothic dance with you In my unreality
What you are is what you are And what I am means nothing What you want is what you get But what you'll get is nothing Nothing will ever please you now A simple wish, your beauty Return sometimes, somehow
I'll take my dreams, my memories My long-gone hope you'll return When the winter leaves this love behind It's time to say goodbye
When the long winterdays Are drawing near When the black soil Turns to white When sounds of joy and fear Are silenced by the snow
As I watch you suffer As I watch you scream As I watch you falling down Fading
And I shed a tear For your long lost soul For your fading beauty Never to return?
When love captures me In its bitter sweet sense When reality hides away In its own secret shadow When the beauty fades to nothing When the magic in your eyes Fades away I say goodbye As I watch you beauty die
