Mercury falling I rise from my bed Collect my thoughts together I have to hold my head It seems that she's gone and somehow I am pinned By the hounds of the winter Howling in the wind
I walk through the days cold around my ears I've looked for my companion I have to dry my tears It seems that she's gone, leaving me too soon And I'm as dark as December I'm cold as the man in the moon
I still see her face as beautiful as day It's easy to remember, remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound Of the hounds of the winter to carry me down, down
Can't make up the fire the way that she could I spend all my days In the search for dry wood Board all the windows, and close the front door I still can't believe she won't be here anymore…
I still see her face as beautiful as day It's easy to remember, remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound Of the hounds of the winter to carry me down, down
A season for joy, a season for sorrow And where she's gone I will surely, surely follow She's brightened my days and warmed the coldest nights The hounds of the winter have got me in their sights
I still see her face as beautiful as day It's easy to remember, remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound Of the hounds of the winter to carry me down
I still see her face as beautiful as day It's easy to remember, remember my love that way All I hear is that lonesome sound Of the hounds of the winter to carry me down, down
