Lyrics : Galen Crew/Roger Cook
Music : Galen Crew/Roger Cook
I was walking through the snow in deep midwinter
And the moon was casting shadows on the ground
I was following a siren through the forest
She never made a sound
Saw the glimmer of Orion through the treetops
It got colder as I ventured ever deeper in the night
She would vanish for a moment in the hollow
Only to reappear
I never knew her name
So I did not call her
I couldn’t see her face
I could only wonder
In the distance I could hear a church bell ringing
It was telling me to turn and go back home
I will think of her when gazing in the fire
Warming my hands alone
And maybe she’ll be there
At the same time tomorrow
I’ll take a lantern though
There’s no footsteps to follow
