Verse:
Was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow
White snow
Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze
Down Below

Verse:
Was a long and dark december
When the banks became Cathedrals
And the fog
Became God
Priests clutched onto bibles
And went out to fit thier rifles
And the cross
Was held aloft

Outro:
I took my love down to Violet Hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still
So, if you love me, won't you let me know?
If you love me, won't you let me know?
