Pale winter sun
is beating the ground
why am I throwing away
the best thing that I've found
my young hearts in tatters and I'm sure
that it will be a long time healing
its so hard to see what I'm doing this for
when loneliness is all that I'm feeling
Stole my time, all my time
spent my time, for you
CHORUS
Now the wind it is blowing
blowing leaves from the trees
I've got no use knowing
that with time it will ease
I don't know where I'm going
hope I get there soon
cos my soul is hollow
as the sorrowful moon
na na na na...
chorus
Oh the night is raining on my weary head
taking my back
See the sun spread wings of gold
as the dawn unfurls
hear the song that the moon sings
to the darkened world
feel the fire lighting
in the bitter cold
its the light that shines
through the windows of your soul
windows of your soul
