The Tatty Truth - Winter's Loveless Arms (Album Version)

As the year fades
And life slips from the trees
As the birds flee
And the trickling streams freeze
She maliciously smiles
She's clutching your dreams
As they fade with the light
Into Winter's Loveless Arms

As the beast dies
And red colours the sand
As the crowds cheer
A matador sword in hand
She watches on
She's pleased at the sight
She'll sleep tonight
In Winter's Loveless Arms

Turn the other cheek they say
Don't engage in her games
Forgive your enemy they say
But always remember her name

As a tear drops
Onto the cheek of a child
Starved of affection
And a mother's loving smile
Over him she presides
Conceited and vile
Until she dies
In Winter's Loveless Arms.

As a ship sales
And a mother weeps at the peer
A distant land calls
And a storm rolls on the sea
She leaves tonight
She travels alone
To where she belongs
In Winter's Loveless Arms

Turn the other cheek they say
Don't engage in her games
Forgive your enemy they say
But always remember her name
