[Chorus A /Part A]
Here come the Ghosts of Winter
Kicking snow into the land
As barren fields they inter
Under solemn white, tranquil
Leave the highlands to their will
Plains, once frantic, still
The tardy time is close at hand
[Chorus A / Part B]
Now hush, my baby, hush
For tomorrow it'll be but slush
And sleep, my darlin', sleep
Slumber fills the castle keep
[Verse 1]
Days slowed down, decelerated
The stream with all its tributaries slowly starts to crack
Tons of snow now disembarked
Meadows marked
And all the roads I've travelled on have led me back
And they've carried all the ore
Came in from the far off shore
And nothing's here to fear for us so far
We chase a brighter star
[Chorus B / Part A]
The grim Dogs of December
Harry sheep clouds 'cross the sky
With burning eyes of amber
They might plough a trace of light
Thru windmill fields of night
Them bootleg horses ride
And bucketsful of clouds flow by
[Chorus A / Part B]
Now hush, my baby, hush
For tomorrow it'll be but slush
And sleep, my darlin', sleep
Slumber fills the castle keep
[Verse 2]
Sun is not forever exiled
The world lies under stagnant bright, obstructive Fahrenheit
Battalions of Bravehearts near
Never fear
But I can't go to sleep tonight without your smile
Wind is howling all the while
Down the Balaclava Aisle
And nothing's here to fear for us, my dear
The tender time is her
[Chorus C / Part A]
The tattered Ghosts of Winter
Kicking snow into the land
As barren fields they inter
Under solemn white, tranquil
Leave the highlands to their will
Plains, once frantic, still
The tardy time is close at hand
[Bridge]
We're receiving summer's epitaph
Coming on the telegraph
Your love is all that's left of me
Never cry no snow shed tears
Gonna wipe away the fears
[Chorus A / Part B]
Now hush, my baby, hush
For tomorrow it'll be but slush
And sleep, my darlin', sleep
Slumber fills the castle keep
[First Electric Guitar Solo]
[Chorus B / Part B]
Hush, mein Liebling, hush
For tomorrow it'll be but slush
And sleep, my darlin', sleep
Inside the ancient castle keep
[Second Electric Guitar Solo]
