Hard Hard Winter - Strawbs

The red sun sets, the lone wolves wail

It’s lonesome here out on the Eastern trail

And all my friends are tired and pale

It’s going to be a hard, hard winter

Long and cold

My eyes reflect the crystal moon

As cold as ice at highest noon

The birds have left a month too soon

It’s going to be a hard, hard winter

Long and cold

My lady of the midnight sun

Shone her rays on everyone

But knew not when the day was done

She wasted her life

Having fun

The night grows old, the sandman cries

He may be sad but is he wise

The tears are frozen to his eyes

It’s going to be a hard, hard winter

Long and cold
