Lyrics:
Was a long and dark December From the rooftops I remember There was snow White snow Clearly I remember From the windows they were watching While we froze down below When the future's architectured By a carnival of idiots on show You'd better lie low If you love me Won't you let me know? Was a long and dark December From the rooftops I remember There was snow (there was snow) White snow (white snow) Clearly I remember From the windows they were watching While we froze (while we froze) Down below (down below) When the future's architectured By a carnival of idiots on show You'd better lie low If you love me Won't you let me know? Was a long and dark December When the banks became cathedrals And a fox (and a fox) Became God (became God) Priests clutched onto bibles Hollowed out to fit their rifles And the cross (and the cross) Was held aloft (was held aloft) Bury me in honour When I'm dead and hit the ground A love back home, it unfolds If you love me Won't you let me know? I don't want to be a soldier Who the captain of some sinking ship Would stow (would stow) Far below (far below) So if you love me Why'd you let me go? I took my love down to violet hill There we sat in snow All that time she was silent still So if you love me Won't you let me know? If you love me, Won't you let me know?
