Silently, inevitably it comes (comes to me) Slowly locks me in its arms (takes me in) Entirely Nothing to rejoice Nor to regret Don’t forget this day I’ve made my choice Nothing to regret Nor to rejoice Don’t forget this day You’ve made your choice
Winter’s here in my (blood) blood (Here in my blood) Ice river flows Through my cold (veins) veins (Ice flows through my veins)
Winter’s here (it’s here) In my blood (in my blood) Winter flows (it’s flowing) Through my veins (through my veins)
The true desire of my heart (My frozen heart of stone) To go back there Where winter now (reigns) reigns (To the place where winter reigns)
The one thing (I’m longing) I dream of (It’s there) Only one (The only) That I need (I’m craving)
Powerful and fatal it’s here in me (it’s in me) And my only wish is frank (and sincere) The only one I wish just to feel its touch For one minute more (Before I’m gone) I wish too much
With its essence within I shall live Gathering pieces by parts Of what only winter can give For my still winter heart
The one thing (I’m longing) Winterheart (I wish for) I dream of (The one thing) What we’ve lost (I’m craving)
Take me back (In your dream) Winterheart (Awake me) Heart of stone (The cold one) We have got (And empty)

The one thing (I’m longing) Winterheart (I wish for) I dream of (The one thing) What we’ve lost (I’m craving)
