The happiest times I've ever had
Were side by side with you.
They have been joyous, and sometimes sad;
But I know that you loved them too.
I can hear the waves upon the shore,
Coming closer every day.
Come on, let's run, you and I, some more,
And never find that bay.
The wolf is howling; he marks the end,
That bad wolf's message rings:
But we aren't quite done yet, no, my friend.
Let's see what Christmas brings.
Can't you hear the waves upon the shore?
How much closer now they seem!
The sounds were dull and muted before,
Now they're darkening my dreams.
I swore that I believed in you,
How could I ever fear,
That I would one day lose you?
Look at you, you're right here!
We've seen the waves out in the bay,
Upon the sand they fell.
Unlikely we'll meet again one day,
And so, my love, farewell.
