Faustus begin thine incantations, Take good care to draw thy circle true, By god must you prevail - For if you fail these Demons make a meal of you. Your soul shall be their meat - A kingly feast for them to eat, Beware your future at hand, Alas for thou art dammed. [Good angel:] "Faustus seek repentance, Abjure this evil art, Cease this wretched wickedness And cleans thy foolish heart, For the evil that once served you Has made of you a slave, And transformed your bed of roses' To a premature grave." Then in a mighty flash of light Before thee mephistopheles appears. [Faustus:] "I charge thee go and change thy shape, For you fill my soul with fear. Now swift-as-hell back to the fire Return an old franciscan friar." [Mephistopheles:] "Mortal command me while you can, For surely thou art dammed." [Bad angel:] "Faustus be thou resolute In what thou wilst perform, Ignore these righteous idiots - Their trinity to scorn, For years of depravation you receive eternal life, But fame and wealth and maidens-fair Are by far the better price." [Faustus:] "Temptations all around me, Is there nowhere i can turn? Hellfire is all about me, Now i know that i shall burn, I face excommunication for the error Of my ways - to burn in hell for all my days. Bell, book and candle, candle, book, bell, Forwards and backwards to damn me to hell. Jehova i beg thee have mercy on my soul. Be gone foul beast that stands before me, My god! the midnight hour chimes, Oh lord have mercy he comes for me, I haven't got much time. I am awake this is no dream, I cry - but terror takes my scream, And now my future is at hand, Also for i am dammed." [Good angel:] "Think for just one moment And i'm sure that you will see, The moral of this story - That what shall be must be. He who gives his soul to hell, Must dare to pay the price, He versed in divinity must Live a noble life - Or else he is damned!

The nights are colder now Maybe I should close the door And anyway the snow has covered all your footsteps And I can follow you no more The fire still burns at night The memories are warm and clear But everybody knows It's hard to be alone this time of year It was only a winter's tale Just another winter's tale And why should the world take notice Of one more love that's failed? A love that can never be Though it meant a lot to you and me On a world-wide scale We're just another winter's tale While I stand alone A bell is ringing far away I wonder if you're here I wonder if you're listening I wonder where you are today Good luck, I wish you well For all that wishes may be worth I hope that love and strength Are with you for the length Of your time on earth It was only a winter's tale Just another winter's tale And why should the world take notice Of one more love that's failed? It's a love that can never be Though it meant a lot to you and me On a world-wide scale We're just another winter's tale It was only a winter's tale Just another winter's tale And why should the world take notice Of one more love that's failed? It's a love that can never be Though it meant a lot to you and me On a world-wide scale We're just another winter's tale We're just another winter's tale
