about

I fell in love with the song the very first time I heard it, it was so beautiful and fragile. I didn’t want do anything that would upset the delicate balance that the original song possesses, so I set off to see whether I could experiment with a different approach and adding drums, bass and some analogue synths. As will all great songs, this one readily allowed a flowering in a different setting. (Stephen)

lyrics

Winter’s veil falls over the land
The fingers of frost on a feather green hand
The birches lace a silvery sky
Where ravens are winging their croaking reply

The valley faded to russet and brown
Where icy veined leaves lie like feathery down
The tangle leads to the woodland edge
Where ruby-jewelled berries adorn the hedge

The fog it blankets the distant hill
The river’s the heart of the dale that beats still
The moss on the millstones of emerald so green
Will not escape the breath of the ice queen
