Lyrics
The curtains are drawn, now the fire warms the room
Meanwhile, outside, wind from the northeast chills the air
It will soon be snowing out there
And some there are cold
They prepare for a sleepless night
Maybe this will be their last fight
But we're safe in each other's embrace
All fears go as I look on your face
Better think awhile or I may never think again
If this were the last day of your life, my friend
Tell me, what do you think you would do then?
Stand up to the blow that fate has struck upon you?
Make the most of all you still have coming to you?
Lay down on the ground and let the tears run from you
Crying to the grass and trees and heaven, finally on your knees?
Let me live again, let life come find me wanting
Springboks strike again against the shield of winter
Let me feel once more the arms of love surround me
Telling me the danger's passed
I need not fear the icy blast again
Laughter and music and perfume linger here
And there, and there, wine flows from flask to glass
And now as it soothes, confusing our doubts
And soon we feel, why do a single thing today?
There's tomorrow sure as I'm here
So the days, they turn into years
And still no tomorrow appears
Better think awhile or I may never think again
If this were the last day of your life, my friend
Tell me, what do you think you would do then?
Stand up to the blow that fate has struck upon you?
Make the most of all you still have coming to you?
Lay down on the ground and let the tears run from you
Crying to the grass and trees and heaven, finally on your knees?
Let me live again, let life come find me wanting
Springboks strike again against the shield of winter
Let me feel once more the arms of love surround me
Telling me the danger's passed
I need not fear the icy blast again
