It gets cold, when the year passes by,
The summer was extremely dry,
Now, the first snowflakes form,
Already in the past, we liked this time,
Your beautiful eyes are sparkling like an ice crystals
Our cabin lies on the beginning of the mountain
If only you knew, how valuable you are to me!
With nobody I am so playful
I promised you, to watch over you
Because sometimes there are no lifeboats far and wide
You were there when the ice threatened to crack
I can see the pictures in that night
And think back to our very first snowball fight
How you smiled when you rode the slide
That was before we had a fight
I wake up from hibernation
Open my eyes
But you are not there anymore
[Refrain - Cassandra Steen:]
That is the first winter,
In my life
My first winter,
Without light
The first winter
I will survive it
The first winter
Without you, without you, without you!
[Verse II - Silla:]
I could look at this landscape for hours
Outside you can see pine cones covered in snow
The night shrouds the sun, therefore it's shimmering red
When I see the valley, memories return
You were ready to relocate from the village to the city
For me, then we had a party, after ski
Why didn't we succeed?
I must think of you, every cold winter night
Because, that is all that is left for me
I write this letter
In case, you read it
In whatever country you go
I will wait for you forever
In case you love me
I had hoped, I would grow old with you
I don't feel any warmth, bitter cold
Will I ever hold you in my arms again?
I follow you through the seasons
[Refrain]
[Cassandra Steen:]
And I know, you had to go,
And I know, I have to let you
I can see the future,
And I know, I mustn't hate someone...
That is the first winter,
In my life
My first winter,
Without light
The first winter
I will survive it
The first winter
Without you, without you, without you!
