Almost Knocking

No MP3 available.

In the blackest night, everything's alright
Don't you get uptight, no, not at all
Just lay your head on my shoulder
Pay no attention to the shadows on the wall
Yeah, it's cold outside and maybe something hides
Outside the door
But if the wind still blows and the shadow grows
We can't ignore it

When the sun went down right outside of town
There were howling sounds in the dark
If they frightened you be a little bolder
For they frightened me, I have no courage in my heart
The evil wind when it knocks again
On our door
We must never run, we must stand as one
Before it

Yeah the door is locked and my mind is blocked
And we must take stock of our lives
To be caught unawares would leave us colder
With our souls ensnared by the shadows in our eyes
It will knock again that nameless sin
On our door
Yeah, the night's so long, and we're not as strong
We can't ignore it

Came a scream outside, the door swung wide
There was a thing so cold, we could not move
The moon was still, the fire did smoulder
A smoke rose slow, a mist moving through the winter wood
Then the dawn was there and a crisp, clean air
Came through the door
The knocking fear must wait another year
To try its torture
