winter's biting [early?], cruel winds blow across the land
our bodies are broken and our souls are surely d***ed
the battle's won, our day is done, this tale will not be told
and my blasted hands are shaking in this cold
and I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes, into my true love's eyes
I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes in the morning
a bitter wind is blowing as the waves crash on the shore
taken and chained, we will plow these fields no more
our houses burned, our freedoms gone, to slavery we're sold
and my spirit's finally breaking in this cold
I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes, into my true love's eyes
I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes in the morning
my love is weeping as the ship sails from the bay
our rising over, we are taken far away
our end is come, our future gone, apart we will grow old
and our souls are torn and aching in this cold
and I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes, into my true love's eyes
I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes in the morning
our bodies are broken and our souls are surely d***ed
the battle's won, our day is done, this tale will not be told
and my blasted hands are shaking in this cold
and I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes, into my true love's eyes
I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes in the morning
a bitter wind is blowing as the waves crash on the shore
taken and chained, we will plow these fields no more
our houses burned, our freedoms gone, to slavery we're sold
and my spirit's finally breaking in this cold
I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes, into my true love's eyes
I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes in the morning
my love is weeping as the ship sails from the bay
our rising over, we are taken far away
our end is come, our future gone, apart we will grow old
and our souls are torn and aching in this cold
and I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes, into my true love's eyes
I'll look no more into my true love's eyes
my true love's eyes in the morning
