Theres too much winter in my life

I am tired of the damp 

I want to be scorched clean

Oy give me the golden fields of early summer

Men take power from the sun

I want to be scorched clean

The ice of love thaws and slips

Between my fingers 

I care little for spring's naive games

It's too late for innocence

In the summer of my life I want to burn 

Oy, I want to be scorched clean

Oy, I want to be scorched clean

Where is the sun for me

Oy, I want to be scorched clean
