0:21Lo and behold your mother
0:30Is drinking again
0:38This might be the coldest winter
0:47Since records began
0:54You were alone and
0:58Steady with wintry calm
1:11Leading the children softly across the fold
1:47Each morning you march your sisters
1:55Like soldiers to school
2:03'Cause lo and behold your father
2:12Has drunk quite a few
2:19You were alone and steady with wintry calm
2:36Somewhere inside the fire
2:42Of your youth went dark
2:53But you swear blind
2:58There is no weight in the water pail
3:10You say my love
3:15You take the cards that you're dealt
3:25Because there's no guiding light
3:31Arcing a line to Bethlehem
3:42If it's dark outside
3:48You light the fire yourself
3:59Darling when the ice caps melt
4:02When the devils in the bible belt
4:05Don't you cower in your bed
4:13I'll be at the five four five
4:16You can meet me at the railway line
4:20Don't look so staid
4:30'Cause we've been through worse
4:32Than this before we could talk
4:44And the trick of it is
4:46Don't be afraid anymore
4:56Oh the trick of it is
5:01Don't be afraid anymore
Lo and behold your mother Is drinking again This might be the coldest winter Since records began You were alone and Steady with wintry calm Leading the children softly across the fold Each morning you march your sisters Like soldiers to school 'Cause lo and behold your father Has drunk quite a few You were alone and steady with wintry calm Somewhere inside the fire Of your youth went dark But you swear blind There is no weight in the water pail You say my love You take the cards that you're dealt Because there's no guiding light Arcing a line to Bethlehem If it's dark outside You light the fire yourself Darling when the ice caps melt When the devils in the bible belt Don't you cower in your bed I'll be at the five four five You can meet me at the railway line Don't look so staid 'Cause we've been through worse Than this before we could talk And the trick of it is Don't be afraid anymore Oh the trick of it is Don't be afraid anymore
