David Essex - "A Winter's Tale."

The nights are colder now
Maybe I should close the door
And anyway the snow has covered all your footsteps
And I can follow you no more.

The fire still burns at night,
My memories are warm and clear;
But everybody knows it's hard to be alone
At this time of year.

It was only a winter's tale,
Just another winter's tale,
And why should the world take notice
Of one more love that's failed?

It was a love that could never be
Though it meant a lot to you and me;
On a world~wide scale
We're just another winter's tale

While I stand alone
A bell is ringing far away
I wonder if you hear, I wonder if you're listening
I wonder where you are today.

Good luck! I wish you well,
And for all that wishes may be worth;
I hope that love and strength
Are with you for the length of your time on earth.

It was only a winter's tale,
Just another winter's tale,
And why should the world take notice
Of one more love that's failed?

It's a love that can never be
Though it meant a lot to you and me;
On a world~wide scale
We're just another winter's tale.

It was only a winter's tale,
Just another winter's tale,
And why should the world take notice
Of one more love that's failed?

It's a love that can never be
Though it meant a lot to you and me;
On a world~wide scale
We're just another winter's tale.
