[Lyrics]
I waited for you, Winterlong
You seem to be where I belong.
It's all illusion anyway.
If things should ever turn out wrong
And all the love we have is gone,
It won't be easy on that day.
Waiting to follow
Through the dreamlight of your way
Is not so easy for me now.
Half the time has passed away
Things we thought of yesterday
Come back now, come back now.
Waiting to follow
Through the dreamlight of your way
Is not so easy for me now.
Half the time has passed away
Things we thought of yesterday
Come back now, come back now.
I waited for you Winterlong
You seem to be where I belong.
