[Verse 1]
Relentlessly the wind blows
Without conscience without sound
And the howling echoes louder
From the lonely hungry hounds
Vagrant winter's in the alley
And he's waiting
And you my love come softly now
And ease my troubled mind
As we huddle by the fireside
Slowly running out of time

[Verse 2]
Born December's children
Learned to live without a sky
That's beneath the tallest buildings
Even our childhood was a lie
Vagrant winter's at the door now
And he's moaning
Come closer love and hold me
We may be the next in line
As we huddle by the fireside
Slowly running out of time

[Verse 3]
Vagrant winter's in the moon now
And he's stealing
As long as you stay with me love
As long as you are mine
I can make it through the worst
In the vagrant winter time
