Gathering clouds hang low
Cold as the shadows grow
Look with your red-rimmed eyes
The others take to the skies
There's mist in the air above
So nestle down deep, my love
We'll wait while the nights grow long
Here where we both belong
Pale, twinkling frost gleams white
Lit by the cold sun's light
Deep through the gorse we'll comb
Warm in our heathland home
There's snow in the air above
So nestle down deep, my love
We'll wait while the nights grow long
Here where we both belong
Sweet, yellow flowers in bloom
Hung on the dark-green broom
Hides our jewels out of sight
Pale, smooth and glossy white
There's warmth in the air above
But nestle down deep, my love
We'll wait while the days grow long
Here where we both belong
Songs through the hot day's light
Fledgelings in bobbing flight
Low across sun-baked sands
Sprites of this humble land
There's life in the air above
So lift up your head, my love
We'll sing while the days live long
Here where we both belong
There's life in the air above
So lift up your head, my love
We'll sing while the days live long
Here where we both belong
