Autumn and winter
Both are descending;
It's raining and snowing
It's snowing and raining.
The night is falling
Dirty and cool
Sick kids are coming
Back from the school.
The walls are moist
I'm feeling cold -
I think of the dead
I'm growing old.
Autumn and winter
Both are descending;
It's raining and snowing
It's snowing and raining.
