Northwind

The northwind Is sitting at my bedside And I can feel upon my face Its fingers of crystal lace Lord, the northwind Is lying down beside me And upon its icy breath Are kisses of certain death Singing, "Come to me!" Singing, "Come to me!" Lover You know you’ve got to get here Leave all else behind Come drive from my mind The northwind Somewhere The lovers are enfolding Deep within their transfixed eyes A winter lover dormant lies Lord, waiting To comfort in their parting To bring a final end to pain Reveal the loss obscure the gain Singing, "Come to me!" Singing, "Come to me!" Lover You know you’ve got to get here How much longer can I fight The caresses in the night Of the northwind? The northwind Is sitting at my bedside And I can feel upon my face Its fingers of crystal lace Lord, the northwind Is lying down beside me And upon its icy breath Are kisses of certain death Singing, "Come to me!" Singing, "Come to me!" Lover You know you’ve got to get here Leave all else behind Come drive from my mind The northwind The northwind
