A cold breeze climbs up the edge of a cloud And follows me to the river I stand and sigh, weighed down with chains They follow me in columns They'll not see port, this north sea wind And like the river I flow through I die, die down at water's edge And love you till I fall down Oh no, oh no, oh no Let sunshine, sunshine flow Winds guide you, winds guide you Come home, home, home, come home You row out to meet me, I was chained That current's strong I guess And Christian spy plane overhead But I would not confess I arrive in the next world, with hate in my heart And eager for my crown And hold you up for all to see For I can't put you down Oh no, no, no, I float into view My heart seems paralysed Inside I dream of loves incomplete Men hound you, they just do Men hound you, they just do A quiet village boy takes leave of his life And walks off into the mountains Come back to me, come close and let me Love you till I fall down Oh no, no, no, I won't let you down Don't understand my heart Inside I dream I've torn you away Don't fall, don't die, don't end Oh no, no, no, I float into view My heart seems paralysed Inside I dream of loves incomplete Men hound you, they just do Men hound you, they just do
