Long Cold Winter of Sorrow and Strife

歌詞

"A flame divine, Gods placed in men's care To battle the frost, to banish despair The days are grim and hearts turn cold And even an act of kindness can lead to death and sorrow" The signs are clear, the dawn has come The summer of our time shall soon be gone The cold days are closing in The bitter chill, it seeps within The trees stand bare, their leaves long gone The earth is frozen, nothing moves on The sun is weak, its light so faint As the world succumbs to winter's restraint Weary wanderer Of these dire times Come and rest for awhile The long cold winter of sorrow and strife Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset In the frozen wasteland, he'll forge his fate A wanderer no more, he'll conquer with hate Through the fires of vengeance, his path is now clear Into the heart of the storm, he'll head without fear Weary wanderer Of these dire times Come and rest for awhile The long cold winter of sorrow and strife Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset Hear how the north wind howls, a mournful cry See how the snow falls from the darkening sky "Before my eyes, the flames did rise In crackling hearth, they mesmerize They licked the skies with tongues of gold A testament to the power they hold" The long cold winter The long cold winter of sorrow and strife Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset
