the sadness of yesterday past
The Winter Of My Soul

Why does this season have to end
This time of magic and mystery
Fellings change, the cold sets in
Yesterday is history

What once felt warm and comfortable
Now is cold as the winter's snow
The embers that kept my heart burning
Where they have gone I don not know

Sadness wraps herself around me
Like a blanket made of thorns
The memory of a sweet season
Is the reason my heart mourns

For now the warmth of yesterday
No longer can I console
I live in the bitter emptiness
In the winter of my soul
