The Northern Cold Songtext
von Woods of Ypres

Mine was that of a quiet love deep and true

I′m at home in the North
When I'm alone in the Northern cold
And I belong in the North
When I′m at home in the Northern cold

If you seek understanding, I will try to explain to you
The origins of my madness, and my strength in solitude
Seldom seen, seldom spoken
My heart was my compass, and it was broken
Mine was that of a quiet love deep and true

I'm at home in the North
When I'm alone in the Northern cold
And I belong in the North
When I′m at home in the Northern cold

If you seek understanding, I will show you what we have known
The long ride on the road to nowhere
The cold walks in the woods alone


In my ocean, the water was frozen
And I could see my reflection, within the ice
Mine was that of a quiet love, deep and true

I′m at home in the North
When I'm alone in the Northern Cold
And I belong in the North
When I′m at home in the Northern cold

Years later, I am still obsessed (with the North)
Years later, still restless and depressed (from the Northern cold)
Years later, I still drown in passion for my sorrows
Years later, I'm alone, and I′m at home in the Northern cold

Yeah!
My blues are so dark, they are black
The roots are buried so deep in the past

See my roots, for they are true
Feel my blues, for they are real

The feel of cold, the black of night, the white of snow
Walking home, the smell of smoke
These are the memories of my youth
