I wonder how winter will be
With a spring that I shall never see
I wonder how night will be
With a day that I shall never see

I wonder how life will be
With a light that I shall never see
I wonder how life will be
With a pain that lasts eternally

In every night there's a different black
In every night I wish that I was back
To the time when I rode
Through the forests of old

In every winter there's a different cold
In every winter I feel so old
So very old as the night
So very old as the dreadful cold

I wonder how life will be
With a death that I shall never see
I wonder why life must be
A life that lasts eternally
I wonder how life will be
With a death that I shall never see
I wonder why life must be
A life that lasts eternally
