They say it only get's harder, the older that I get

They say the friends I remember, are the ones that I'll forget

They tell me lovin' will kill me, but I'll kill the love instead

And only I'll hope there's someone, who misses in the end.

And as my castle of sand falls away

When I've seen enough of the most terrible days

I'll build a ship out the mistakes I have made

And I'll sail to a place far away.

I've been a proud man, I've been a poor man

I've done it right and I've done it wrong

But I've got the heart of

A wolf in the winter

I'll share the moon with her

Well have you heard? she loves me and I love her.

If I could relive the days when

Storynights were made of gold

I'd write a note to my future

Naming all the friendly ghosts

They say the lovin' will kill me

But the hell with what they said

I know that I'll be a mother

For all the lovin' that I'll take.

And as my castle of sand falls away (falls away)

When I've seen enough of the most terrible days (terrible days)

I'll build a ship out the mistakes I have made

And I'll sail to a place far away.

I've been a proud man, I've been a poor man

I've done it right and I've done it wrong

But I've got the heart of

A wolf in the winter

I'll share the moon with her

Well have you heard?

I've been a proud man, I've been a poor man

I've done it right and I've done it wrong

But I've got the heart of

A wolf in the winter

I'll share the moon with her

Well have you heard? she loves me and I love her.

She loves me and I love her.
