Coldest Winter In Memory (2005 Digital Remaster) - Al Stewart[00:00:00]

The coldest winter in memory was 1709[00:00:04]

The sea froze off the coast of[00:00:12]

France all along the Neptune line[00:00:15]

By the lost town of Dunwich the shore was washed away[00:00:20]

They say you hear the church bells still[00:00:28]

As they toll beneath the waves[00:00:31]

Come all you earthly princes [00:00:38]

Wheresoever you may be[00:00:42]

From the Sun King in the court of[00:00:46]

France to the Czar in Muscovy[00:00:49]

Take heed of Charles of Sweden [00:00:54]

The Lion North of the North [00:00:58]

On the cracked earth of summer[00:01:02]

With his army he goes forth[00:01:06]

Guardian angels wherever you may be [00:01:14]

Reach down and keep my soul for me[00:01:21]

I was there amongst that number [00:01:32]

I heard the trumpets strain[00:01:37]

I saw the host of banners[00:01:41]

Spread across the Polish plain[00:01:44]

Those who stood against us [00:01:49]

They soon were swept away[00:01:53]

They may have the numbers[00:01:57]

But it's Charles shall have the day[00:02:01]

We cut our way through forests [00:02:07]

Crossed on frozen streams[00:02:11]

They fell away before us like a murmur in a dream[00:02:16]

And they burned the land around us[00:02:23]

As snow was closing in[00:02:27]

And the arms of winter took us[00:02:31]

As we fired against the wind[00:02:35]

Guardian angels wherever you may be [00:02:40]

Reach down and keep my soul for me[00:02:48]

Through all the courts of Europe[00:03:26]

There's a rumor from the East[00:03:29]

The kings have come to battle[00:03:34]

And it's Charles who's known defeat[00:03:37]

They'll shake their heads[00:03:42]

And wonder at how this came to be[00:03:43]

But it's nights without a shelter[00:03:50]

That have made an end for me[00:03:54]

Now Charles is fled to Turkey [00:04:00]

Left his men afar[00:04:04]

And they'll be marched through Moscow now[00:04:08]

As prisoners of the Czar[00:04:12]

And had I but known last summer[00:04:16]

What I know understand[00:04:20]

I'd have never set my foot inside[00:04:24]

This bleak and bitter land[00:04:28]

Guardian angels wherever you may be [00:04:34]

Reach down and keep my soul for me[00:04:41]

The coldest winter in memory was 1709[00:04:49]

The sea froze off the coast of[00:04:57]

France all along the Neptune line[00:04:59]

By the lost town of Dunwich[00:05:04]

The shore was washed away[00:05:09]

They say you hear the church bells still[00:05:13]

As they toll beneath the waves[00:05:16]
