Lyrics:

I cannot sleep, my dear, tonight
For the wind has left my heart in flight
And the moon wanders these hills all alone

The bells that move in the trees
Are saying softly to me
"Will you dream through this night all alone?"

I cannot sleep without you
In the forests that we drew
With colors from the streams
Flowing through our dreams

Where has my heart gone? I cannot tell
Has it been sold in market stalls
To beggars in search of gold on their own?

The dreams, they come and go
They make their way through the snow
To foggy kingdoms beyond on their own

I've grown weary of the hearth
I cannot breathe with this heart
I am a winter's bride
Without you by my side

The fields that have slept in my head
Have wakened the gales that have fled
My thoughts that live in this love all alone

I will wander the moors
I will try every door
That might lead to the cart
Wheeling off my heart

I cannot sleep, my dear, tonight
For the wind has left my heart in flight
