The sailor shot the dice straight through As woman cried with birth And doctors ran from town to town Resolving every myth The ones who stayed afire in ice Cried in winds of change But winter it just fell some more And nothing felt so strange (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
The camps and fires lay empty there Children had flown home The ones who crossed still were there As wind re-read each moan The birthday boys cried out for sun But no sons reappeared But winter it just fell some more Just as they had feared (Oh, oh, oh, oh) I saw this lonely boy In this other world With a marble girl In another face In another world (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Somewhere said she waits for me It ran out from my mind So I saw and watched the winter fall Pretending to be blind I watched you darken Kipling's lights You saw me by his throne But winter it just fell some more And I was still alone The winter it just fell some more And I was still alone (Oh, oh, oh, oh) I saw this lonely boy. In this other world With a marble girl. In another face. In another world. I saw this lonely boy. With a marble girl. In another face. In another world. (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Is anybody looking for a woman in winter? Is anybody looking for a woman in winter? Is anybody looking for a woman in winter?
