[00:17.64] 'Lo and behold your mother is drinking again
[00:29.49]
[00:32.69] This might be the coldest winter since records began
[00:44.06]
[00:46.60] You were alone and steady with wintry calm
[00:56.06]
[01:01.81] Leading the children softly across the fold
[01:10.40]
[01:33.15] In the morning you march your sisters like soldiers to school
[01:47.30] 'Cause lo and behold your father has drunk quite a few
[01:58.14]
[02:00.20] You were alone and steady with wintry calm
[02:09.96]
[02:14.37] Somewhere inside the fire of your youth went dark
[02:24.34]
[02:28.54] But you swear blind there is no weight in the water pail
[02:38.84]
[02:42.95] you And say 'my love, you take the cards that you're dealt'
[02:54.79]
[02:56.87] There's no guiding light arcing a line to Bethlehem
[03:07.50]
[03:11.78] And when it's dark outside, you light the fire yourself
[03:23.44]
[03:26.14] Darling when the ice caps melt
[03:29.40] When the devils in the bible belt
[03:32.41] Don't you cower in your bed
[03:38.82]
[03:39.76] I'll be at the five-four-five
[03:40.82]
[03:42.70] You can meet me at the railway line
[03:46.15] Don't look so staid
[03:51.61]
[03:56.26] 'Cause we've been through worse than this before we could talk
[04:01.83]
[04:09.37] And the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore
[04:16.78]
[04:20.77] Oh, the trick of it is, don't be afraid anymore
