Mercury falling
I rise from my bed
Collect my thoughts together
I have to hold my head
Seems that she's gone
and somehow I am pinned by
The hounds of winter
They're howling in the wind
I walk through the day
My coat around my ears
I look for my companion
Oh, I have to dry my tears
It seems that she's gone
leaving me too soon
I'm as dark as December
I'm as cold as the Man in the Moon
I still her face
As beautiful as day
It's easy to remember
remember my love that way
All I'll hear is that lonesome sound
And the hounds of winter
They follow me down
Can't make up the fire
The way that she could
I spend all my days
In the search for drywood
Barred up all the windows
And I closed the front door
I can't believe
She won't be here anymore
I still her face
As beautiful as day
It's easy to remember
remember my love that way
All I'll hear is that lonesome sound
And the hounds of winter
They follow me down, yeah
A season for joy
A season for sorrow
Where she's gone
I will surely, surely follow
She brightened my day
And she warmed the coldest nights
The hounds of winter
Oh they got me in their sights
I still her face
As beautiful as day
It's easy to remember
remember my love that way
All I'll hear is that lonesome sound
And the hounds of winter
They harry me down
