A Winter’s Tale

I look out the window, a white frost like snow blanket covering the trees today. The days are colder now. My memories are warm and clear. I wish I was close enough to come sit by your fire, or you sit by mine. I feel us building a cocoon of warmth against the cold of winter. Our wave of our warmth persists and on a distant world. Your longing makes me long too. We would stay up half the night, sharing love. Just like we did before. Just like I imagine it did. Just as I picture it. You’re the drawing. I watch and I can see your colors are bright, are clear, are beautiful. It was only a winter’s tale, just another winter’s tale..

“Some memories never multiply, but new ones leave their trace....”


A Winter’s Tale
(Sung by: Queen)

It’s winter-fall
Red skies are gleaming - oh -
Sea gulls are flying over
Swans are floatin’ by
Smoking chimney-tops
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming...?

The nights draw in
There's silky moon up in the sky - yeah -
Children are fantisising
Grown-ups are standin’ by
What a super feeling
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming...?
woh-woh-woh-woh

(draming)
So quiet and peaceful
Tranquil and blissful
There’s a kind of magic in the air
What a truly magnificent view
A breathtaking scene

With the dreams of the world
In the palm of your hand

(draming)
A cosy fireside chat
A little this, a little that
Sound of merry laughter skippin’ by
Gentle rain beatin’ on my face
What an extraordinary place!
And the dream of the child
Is the hope of the man

It’s all so beautiful
Like a landscape painting in the sky - yeah -
Mountains are zoomin’ higher - mm -
Little girls scream an’ cry
My world is spinnin’ and spinnin’ and spinnin’
It’s unbelievable
Sends me reeling
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?
Oooh – it’ a bliss.
