The cold north wind the call "La Bise"
Is swirling round about my knees
Trees are crying leaves into th river
I'm huddled in this french café
I never thought I'd see the day
But winter' here and summer's really over
Even the birds have packed up and gone
They're flying south with their song
And my love, she too has gone, she had to fly
Take care, it's such a lonely sky
They'll trap your wings my love and hold your flight
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky...
The old cathredal lights are low
She and I we'd often go there
To admire and sometimes kneel in prayer
Lords and Ladies lie in stone
Hand in hand from long ago
And though their hands are cold they'll love forever
Even the choir rehearses those songs
For Christmas is not long
And alone, I sing my song, she had to fly
Out there, it's such a lonely sky
They'll trap your wings my love and hold your flight
They'll build a cage and steal your only sky
Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
Fly away, fly to me, and if you need my love
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky...
I'l lcome in with the dawn
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
On the wings of the moon
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
Above the world we'll be flying
I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky...
