Life passes yet I remain still br Frozen in the winter of happiness's joy br Caught in the icy flame of love's thrill br Dreaming of thee, love dreams doth deploy br Tinges of frost over mine golden hair br Rivers of cold blood through mine mauve vein br Crystals of ice to capture mine eternal stare br And scarlet love dead in my lips lain br All around me doth winter melt br And leaves turn orange and gently play br In the summer heat of the sun's swelt br As spring winds run through the fall day.
