Lyrics

The Cold Wind Blows
(C) Michael R. J. Roth

When I rise I will return
To the cold eye of the dawn
Reminding me that time began
From the moment you were gone
Since the day I gazed on you
I could bear no other sight
Like the true light of the moon
Burning through the lie of night

Once I had a heart of steel
Forged in furnaces of hate
And no wound it made would heal
Nor could it shield me from my fate
On the day I felt your love
Dissolve my heart like so much rust
It was like rain out on the field
Raising grain up from the dust.

Chorus:
Now the cold wind blows
and the evening sky
is suddenly aflame,
and the only sound
is my beating heart
echoing your name.

Like a stone into a well
I have fallen on my hope
Like a refugee from hell
Standing with a telescope
Until the day you come for me
I will remain these many years
On this island of my soul
In this ocean of my tears

(Chorus)
