Mother, I feel so cold, she says and stares into the dark
I take hold of her hands
She's burning like fire
I have seen the lilies bloom on a cold winter day
I have heard dead men speak
And wash their sins away
No more shall I fear the night
I have seen it all
I'd give away my heart and soul if only that could bring her back to life
She was fair, like light and day
She was my heart's delight
She says no-one's to blame
But indeed I blame myself
