Walk out to winter, swear I'll be there   Chill will wake you, high and dry   You'll wonder why      We met in the summer and walked 'til the fall   And breathless we talked, it was tongues   Despite what they'll say   It wasn't youth, we hit the truth      Faces of Strummer that fell from your wall   And nothing was left where they hung   So sweet and bitter   Tthey're what we found   So drink them down and      Walk out to winter   Swear I'll be there   Chill will wake you   High and dry, you'll wonder why   Walk out to winter   Swear I'll be there   Chance is buried   Just below the blinding snow      You burn in the breadline   In ribbons and all   So walk to winter   You won't be late, she'll always wait   This generation   They'll walk to the wall   But I'm not angry   Get your gear, get out of here and      Walk out to winter   Swear I'll be there   Chill will wake you   High and dry, you'll wonder why   Walk out to winter   Swear I'll be there   Chance is buried   Just below the blinding snow
