petrograd - washington irving (uk) lyrics

[verse 1]
wildcat howling in the distant snow
if only i could let that go
she woke me up one frozen morning
and the sky was broken by piercing light
and now her body lies in the snow
if only i could let that go

[chorus]
but i’m older now, i see her all around
the most haunted laugh, your face on a photograph

[verse 2]
kronstadt sailing for the golden town
the inexorable sea ice drowns
and how could i have asked for more?, i hear them cry
men like us were built for war, and so was i
wildcat howling in the distant snow
if only i could let that go

[chorus]
but i’m older now, i see her all around
the most haunted laugh, your face on a photograph
tell me those tailored lies and slip on that cold disguise
i see her wrapped in furs, calling me in that way of hers
the thought weighs me down, i need her to take me out
the golden town is lost to statues in the frost
the wildcat moan won’t leave me the f*ck alone
she haunts me now

[verse 3]
wildcat howling in the distant snow
if only i could let that go
i won’t come back to her until
the golden streets are deathly still
and all those bodies lie in the snow
if only i could let that go
