Frozen Fields of Snow lyrics

I was born some time ago

In this very room

There's many who have come and gone

There may be one more soon

Seasons come and seasons go

Some talking in between

I'm lookin' through the window now

At all that I have been

Someone is singin' some crazy song

On the paint strained radio

My hands they are wringin' as I gaze upon

These frozen fields of snow

My father was a violent man

He died in '63

My mother broke her silence then

And she looked after me

We dug a deep well for water

She told me water makes you free

She lost her only daughter

Her name was Mary-Lee

They called me up and threw me in

And there I lost my heart

I forget where I have been

Till I wake up in the dark

I heard a voice saying you're going home

As my blood began to flow

My mama was calling and beckoning

From the frozen fields of snow

Somethin' out there's goin' to ground

Lying under open skies

Birds of prey come swoopin' down

Picking at their eyes

Springtime is comin' and it's none too soon

It's time for me to let it go

I can see color green poking through

Through these frozen fields of snow

My secrets are whispering

In this fading light

I have killed and I have loved

Time it will decide
