lyrics

QUEEN OF WINTER

She turned away one April day,
And left the world behind;
An enigmatic mystery
Twisted inward and reborn.
Yet on the longest night, she returns to me again,
As empty branches reach toward
And touch the purple sky.

And in the midnight hour, she calls to me by name;
Hidden in her words, the message and the key.
All light is lost; she’s stained my stained-glass window white.
Why dream in color, in a world so crystalline?
Wrapped in her cold embrace...

Queen of winter -
Queen of night -
What lies behind your
Frozen eyes?

Snow like sand, my drifting fate;
I fall under her spell.
Time speeds up and then detains,
As the colors burn and fade.
And on that longest night, I leave the world behind,
As empty branches bend to earth,
And the purple sky turns black.

And in the midnight hour, she calls to me by name;
Hidden in her words, the message and the key.
All light is lost; she’s stained my stained-glass window white.
Why dream in color, in a world so crystalline?
Wrapped in her dark embrace...

Queen of winter -
Queen of night -
What lies behind your
Frozen eyes?

And so we wander out into the snow,
As the north wind ever blows.
All is nothing, into nothing we become
Everything and all...
Before the winter begins.
Before the winter begins.
Before the winter begins.
Before her winter begins.

Lyrics by John Niffenegger
Chris Dalton, & K.L. Thigpen
