Now I'm a gray old ghost Weeping in winter trees And searching for a soul Waiting for a voice to come She was worth dying for It is my severed woes, I cry Her eyes were pale like dawn Out of this gloomy light I'll wait there forevermore The light holds us forever more Still one second I would not give away Cold winter nights, I cry on your grave Why won't you come? Why won't you come? As she is dying in the snow The moonlight silently glows Her tears flow by her cheek When snow falls from the trees I'll wait there forevermore The light holds us forever more Still one second I would not give away Cold winter nights, I cry on your grave Why won't you come? Why won't you come?
