When Winter.... comes howling in.

Verse 2:

When the wind is singing strangely, blowing music through your head

And your rain-splattered windows make you decide to stay in bed

Do you spare a thought for the homeless tramp who wishes he was dead

Or do you pull your bed-clothes higher, dream of Summertime instead,

When Winter.... comes howling in.

Verse 3:

The creeping cold has fingers that caress without permission

And mystic crystal snowdrops only aggravate the condition

Do you spare a thought for the gypsy with no secure position

Who's turned and spurned by village and town and the Magistrate's decision,

When Winter.... comes howling in.

Verse 4:

When the turkey's in the oven and the Christmas presents are bought

And Santa's in his module - he's an American astronaut -

Do you spare a thought for Jesus, who had nothing but his thoughts,

Who got busted - just for talking, and befriending the wrong sorts,

When Winter.... comes howling in.
