Shivering in the cold
I tell a tale of old
Of a knight so very bold
And a heart he so foolishly sold
To see a lady fair
He traveled here and there
But the villain does not care
For love does not share
The icy breeze
Thus did freeze
And lost the keys
The knight paid the fees
Cold nose running
Villain so cunning
People thus shunning
Fair lady gunning
A spin and a twirl
The world thus unfurl
Lady toss a curl
The villain is the girl
The knight sold his heart
With his love he did thus part
For the villain has a cart
Of love stained with poison dart
My hands are a shaking
This cold, moral breaking
Her laugh, ground quaking
Hearts she is thus taking
Too cold to stay
The knight did away
But first he did thus pay
And how his heart did fray
I pull a scarf up over my nose
The knight's heart the lady froze
On display it now shows
That man who doth come to lady, without heart he goes
I tell a tale of old
Of a knight so very bold
And a heart he so foolishly sold
To see a lady fair
He traveled here and there
But the villain does not care
For love does not share
The icy breeze
Thus did freeze
And lost the keys
The knight paid the fees
Cold nose running
Villain so cunning
People thus shunning
Fair lady gunning
A spin and a twirl
The world thus unfurl
Lady toss a curl
The villain is the girl
The knight sold his heart
With his love he did thus part
For the villain has a cart
Of love stained with poison dart
My hands are a shaking
This cold, moral breaking
Her laugh, ground quaking
Hearts she is thus taking
Too cold to stay
The knight did away
But first he did thus pay
And how his heart did fray
I pull a scarf up over my nose
The knight's heart the lady froze
On display it now shows
That man who doth come to lady, without heart he goes
