WInter Solitude © John Johns 2008
Stay with us dreary Winter - don’t give your dark days to the Spring * Don’t show us your bright mornings - don’t want to hear your songbirds sing * The flowers of the summertime - with their perfume all in vain * ‘Cos I know I have to loose you - when the swallow soars again *
CHORUS * Like the firelight that fades away in the bright Summer sun * With the passing of these Winter days our time will all be gone *
The days are getting longer - the sun gets higher every day * With its brightness comes loneliness - as the Winter fades away * Then I’ll have to face the world again - without the love I can’t retain * And leave our Winter solitude - when the swallow soars again *
Break
CHORUS
Repeat 1st verse * Repeat last line
