The Drifting Snow Lyrics

Painting the frozen land an ethereal whiteAmong the graves we danced slowly in the nightAs fruitless trees swayed in the burning cold windLike the diamonds hidden along the earth that dayShe was nothing more than a shade, a delicate shadowI kissed her scarlet lips as if for the first timeI drank deep her essence warm and invitingI gazed forever into her dark eyesAnd I caressed her beautiful pale faceIn the dark stillness she rested in thy loving armsThough I wished her to stay I knew the dawn was waitingFor us the sun arrives without welcomeI have seen the glory of the gray dawnAwash in the black tears as the snow drifts downThese winter days of cold are the misery I die uponFor I have known the lovelorn life, of which I wearthat broken crown of scorn and mockeryI have known truth in hateLove wears thin our pride and bitter is the tasteOf life and death we dance for our souls to findFor time consumes the hearts of manAnd beckons the call of death's sweet kissThe days are soon departed as loved ones long agoThere is no joy in the sadnessI had seen the sad farewell in her black eyesYet I held her closer still under the scarlet moonlightI had seen the sad farewell through the gray clouds afarAs they stole away the night and out exquisite sorrowIn that eternal silent moment I knew the death of dreamsAs she fell from thy arms I had seen the end of all hopeI have lost all
