autumn - the time of darkness and decay
life's running shorter day by day
winter - has gripped the land in cold caress
he's all alone and deeply depressed
she's dead
don't you fear the winter
i will keep you safe
and warm
don't you fear the winter
nothing's gonna
do you harm
midnight - and on the graveyard a storm is raging
the clods of earth hide his whole life
homeless - who's lonely now will be for long
the wind will drift him on and on
like the leaves
don't you fear the winter
i will keep you safe
and warm
don't you fear the winter
come with me
there'll be no harm
a silent might that has moved you
hear your waters stand still
striding down to the elder
soon you'll meet her again
autumn - who's got the time knows nothing yet
who cares? but watchful are the dead
midnight - it's hard to face and deeply sad
but you're asleep so don't look back
you're dead
don't you fear the winter
i will keep you safe
and warm
don't you fear the winter
nothing's gonna
do you harm
don't you fear the winter
i will keep you safe
and warm
don't you fear the winter
come with me
there'll be no harm
