As the winter winds

litter London with lonely hearts

Oh the warmth

in your eyes

swept me into your arms

Was it love or fear

of the cold that led us

through the night?

For every kiss

your beauty trumped my doubt

And my head told my heart

"Let love grow"

But my heart told my head

"This time no

This time no"

We'll be washed and buried

one day my girl

And the time we were

given will be left for the world

The flesh that lived and loved

will be eaten by plague

So let the memories

be good for those who stay

And my head told my heart

"Let love grow"

But my heart told my head

"This time no"

Yes my heart told my head

"This time no

This time no"

Oh the shame that sent me off

from the God that I once loved

Was the same that sent

me into your arms

Oh and pestilence is won

when you are lost and I am gone

And no hope

no hope will overcome

And if your strife strikes at your sleep

Remember spring swaps snow for leaves

You'll be happy and wholesome again

When the city clears

and sun ascends...

And my head told my heart

"Let love grow"

But my heart told my head

"This time no"

And my head told my heart

"Let love grow"

But my heart told my head

"This time no

This time no".......
