A Blizzard Barrier
The snow it fell so
I could not see
Could not perceive
The road ahead
I had your face
In my heart
Oh, baby, I won’t be able
To make it home, it seems
My limbs are freezing solid,
Tonight, there will be no fire to warm me
I am quite afraid
You’re not near to comfort me
The snow flurries past me
The white waves become thicker and thicker
Until I cannot even see my feet
But, I just struggle onwards, still trying
.....
It’s been a few hours now
And the blizzard has calmed down
But I do not know where I am
Baby, I will never come home
