lyrics

Simple houses made of only sand and shell
Others are just mud and brick, I know them well.

Sleep for now, you silent oh so pretty one. Dream of what was yours, now is all undone

Through the window, there you sleep
what is yours, I aim to keep
Take this hand, I’ll never tell
The faintest touch, the softest spell

Once again I step outside into the snow
What I took from you you’ll never ever know
through every window, every door
Always leaves me needing more

The killers hair, the fire gives smoke so black and thick
A hand that holds a hand that holds that vile wick
They all are frozen but awake
Each is helpless while I take

Through the window, there you sleep
what is yours, I aim to keep
Take this hand, I’ll never tell
The faintest touch, the softest spell

O glory! What glory!
And spoils - How rich!
In cover of the night
A bait and switch
