Verse 1

summer came around early this year

and winter swung around soon after

the scent of spring was high with fear

the autmn crows call disaster

Chorus

 because the north wind blows so cold

 chilling the warmth of my desire

 and the whispered words we know

 tell of a future burned with fire

Verse 2

the music that now fills the street

falls to the rhythm of marching

feet i find no comfort here

no not in this or any other year

Chorus

 because the north wind blows so cold

 chilling the warmth of my desire

 and the whispered words we know

 tell of a future burned with fire

 tell of a future burned with fire

Verse 3

a stranger asked me what do you know

and just where are you going

i told the truth i just don't know

if you don't mind i'll keep on going

Chorus

 because the north wind blows so cold

 chilling the warmth of my desire

 and the whispered words we know

 tell of a future burned with fire

 tell of a future burned with fire
