Lyrics

Winter lady, where you going
With your hair all soft and loose like snowin'?
Winter girl, december child, don't run away
Winter lady, walking sadly, does your lover
Treat you badly? do you dream or wish on stars
To hear him say, "oh, winter lady
I won't hurt you, I won't cheat you
I won't desert you, winter lady. you need lovin'
I need lovin', too. I need lovin' you."

Staring out your winter window
At a silver sky you know you've been to
In a kiss upon a day before a spring
Winter lady, cry those crystal tears
He won't know what he's missed
Till love's too late; you've changed your mind
And it's my turn to sing, "oh
Winter lady, I won't hurt you, I won't cheat you
I won't desert you, winter lady. you need lovin'
I need lovin', too. I need lovin' you
