Buffy Sainte-Marie "Winter Boy" Lyrics

Winter Boy

Born in a snowy day

Came to me in a rainy afternoon

And lived in summer-long

Love i trusted far too well

Gone away in winters spell

Had broke my heart

And left me all alone

And looking for a home

To rest my weary heart

For just a while

And i found that in the smile

Of a boy

A little boy with midnight in his hair

And promise in his eyes

Of days and nights there yet to be

Days and nights he'd clinged to me

For i am winters lady

And he...

Is winters child

Though there be summers here

And the smell of pine comes

Crying to my heart

Still my joy and my security

Will i decide the boy

Of blessed purity

The little boy with midnight

In his hair

And diamonds in his eyes

Diamonds made of trust and love for me

And gleaming at me all the afternoon

... Such a haunting but gorgeous song.
