Autumn, the time of darkness and decay Life's running shorter day by day Winter has gripped the land in cold caress He's all alone and deeply depressed, she's dead Don't you fear the winter, I will keep you safe and warm Don't you fear the winter, nothing's gonna do you harm Midnight and on the graveyard a storm is rage The clods of earth hide his whole life Homeless, who's lonely now will be for long The wind will drift him on and on like the leaves Don't you fear the winter, I will keep you safe and warm Don't you fear the winter, come with me, there'll be no harm A silent might that has moved you Hear your waters stand still Striding down to the elder Soon you'll meet her again Autumn, who's got the time knows nothing yet Who cares, but watchful are the dead Midnight, it's hard to face and deeply sad But you're asleep so don't look back, you're dead Don't you fear the winter, I will keep you safe and warm Don't you fear the winter, nothing's gonna do you harm Don't you fear the winter, I will keep you safe and warm Don't you fear the winter, come with me, there'll be no harm
