"A flame divine, gods placed in men's care

To battle the frost, to banish despair

The days are grim and hearts turn cold

And even an act of kindness can lead to death and sorrow"

The signs are clear, the dawn has come

The summer of our time shall soon be gone

The cold days are closing in

The bitter chill, it seems within

The trees stand bare, their leaves long gone

The earth is frozen, nothing moves on

The Sun is weak, its light so faint

As the world succumbs to winter's restraint

Weary wanderer

Of these dire times

Come and rest for a while

The long cold winter of sorrow and strife

Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire

We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget

The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset

In the frozen wasteland, he'll forge his fate

A wanderer no more, he'll conquer with hate

Through the fires of vengeance, his path is now clear

Into the heart of the storm, he'll head without fear

Weary wanderer

Of these dire times

Come and rest for a while

The long cold winter of sorrow and strife

Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire

We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget

The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset

Hear how the north wind howls, a mournful cry

See how the snow falls from the darkening sky

"Before my eyes, the flames did rise

In crackling hearts, they mesmerize

They licked the skies with tongues of gold

A testament to the power they hold"

The long cold winter

The long cold winter of sorrow and strife

Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire

We'll sing to remember and we'll drink to forget

The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset
