I’ll take myself forward to the old winter trees,
Wondering what’s waiting, or what made a home for me.
Following small lamp posts, filled with gasoline,
In hopes of finding my home, my home
In hopes of finding my home
Oh, in hopes of finding my home my home by the old winter trees
Cold frigid air pinches my body, to remind,
Me of the slow stars of winter that tend to lead me into night.
My only fear at this point are the creatures of the night,
But I find hope, find hope, find hope, find hope,
I find hope, find hope, find hope,
Oh, I find hope, find hope, find hope, find hope in the calming winter skies,
Oh, how I found myself in front burning winter trees,
As the smoke fills up my lungs and then hoards all of my belief’s.
If timing was more careful, and I followed the foxes here,
I’d have a home, have a home, have a home, have a home,
I’d have a home, have a home, have a home.
Oh, if I’d come here with those foxes I’d have a home to rest assure.

horrid winter. There's a definite Celtic touch, but far sweeter than something like Mumford & Sons." - Andrew Fifield (Metro News)
