Lyrics

0:19As the winter winds litter London with lonely hearts
0:25Oh the warmth in your eyes swept me into your arms
0:30Was it love or fear of the cold that led us through the night
0:36For every kiss your beauty trumped my doubt
0:43And my head told my heart
0:47Let love grow
0:50But my heart told my head
0:54This time no
0:56This time no
1:02We'll be washed and buried one day my girl
1:08And the time we were given will be left for the world
1:13The flesh that lived and loved will be eaten by plague
1:19So let the memories be good for those who stay
1:29And my head told my heart
1:32Let love grow
1:36But my heart told my head
1:39This time no
1:41Yes my heart told my head
1:45This time no
1:47This time no
1:53Oh the shame that sent me off from the God that I once loved
1:59Was the same that sent me into your arms
2:04Oh and pestilence is won when you are lost and I am gone
2:10And no hope no hope will overcome
2:16And if your strife strikes at your sleep
2:22Remember spring swaps snow for leaves
2:28You'll be happy and wholesome again
2:33When the city clears and sun ascends
2:58And my head told my heart
3:01Let love grow
3:05But my heart told my head
3:08This time no
3:12And my head told my heart
3:15Let love grow
3:19But my heart told my head
3:22This time no
3:24This time no
As the winter winds litter London with lonely hearts
Oh the warmth in your eyes swept me into your arms
Was it love or fear of the cold that led us through the night
For every kiss your beauty trumped my doubt
And my head told my heart
Let love grow
But my heart told my head
This time no
This time no
We'll be washed and buried one day my girl
And the time we were given will be left for the world
The flesh that lived and loved will be eaten by plague
So let the memories be good for those who stay
And my head told my heart
Let love grow
But my heart told my head
This time no
Yes my heart told my head
This time no
This time no
Oh the shame that sent me off from the God that I once loved
Was the same that sent me into your arms
Oh and pestilence is won when you are lost and I am gone
And no hope no hope will overcome
And if your strife strikes at your sleep
Remember spring swaps snow for leaves
You'll be happy and wholesome again
When the city clears and sun ascends
And my head told my heart
Let love grow
But my heart told my head
This time no
And my head told my heart
Let love grow
But my heart told my head
This time no
This time no
