As winter roamed outside my window,
And melancholy played its part
I wrapped myself in all that I could find
Against the cold that ruled inside my heart
The night was like a swirling ocean,
And waves of darkness held me back
And as I turned to brave the wind and rain
A beam of moonlight found a beaten track
Winter moon, winter moon
Under the spell of a winter moon,
Clair De Lune
I just followed her the whole night through
The busy city lay in slumber
Too far away to make a sound
But moonlight came,
And caught us unawares,
And showed to me the secrets she had found
I followed her across the night skies
And felt the magic of her rays
And though how daylight stole her glow
She had seen the folly of my ways
Winter moon, winter moon
Under the spell of a winter moon,
Clair De Lune
I just followed her the whole night through
For she had seen her share of lovers
When tears of joy or sorrow flow
To wrap themselves in anything they find
And follow winter moons wherever they go
Oh, winter moon, winter moon
Under the spell of a winter moon,
Clair De Lune
I still follow her the whole night through
Oh-oh, winter moon, winter moon
Under the spell of a winter moon,
Clair De Lune
I still follow her the whole night through
