Lyrics:

Mercury falling I rise from my bed.
Collect my thoughts together, I have to hold my head.
It seems that she's gone and somehow I am pinned by
the Hounds of Winter howling in the wind.
I walk through the day my coat around my ears,
I look for my companion, I have to dry my tears.
It seems that she's gone leaving me too soon.
I'm as dark as December, I'm as cold as the Man in the Moon.
I still see her face as beautiful as day,
it's easy to remember, remember my love that way.
All I hear is that lonesome sound,
the Hounds of Winter, they follow me down.
I can't make up the fire the way that she could,
I spend all my days in the search for dry wood.
Board all the windows and close the front door.
I can't believe she won't be here anymore.
I still see her face as beautiful as day,
it's easy to remember, remember my love that way.
All I hear is that lonesome sound,
the Hounds of Winter, they follow me down.
A season for joy, a season for sorrow,
where she's gone I will surely, surely follow.
She brightened my day, she warmed the coldest night.
The Hounds of Winter, they got me in their sights.
I still see her face as beautiful as day,
it's easy to remember, remember my love that way.
All I hear is that lonesome sound,
the Hounds of Winter, they harry me down.
