The north wind keeps on blowing
And it chills me to the bone
The past is a cold shoulder
It’s no good for crying on

The future’s just an ice storm
In the coldness of the years
That pass on by like glaciers
After the sun disappears

Chorus:
My love blows down the highway
Like a snow flake in the wind
Fare thee well my summer girl
It’s winter time again

Once the weather turns sideways
And the fall beats a retreat
There’s no rest for the weary
And no fire to warm your feet

And the days all seem so short
When it’s heartbreak saving time
She bought some time for her heart
But there’s not much hope for mine

Bridge:
The snow has been falling since just before dark
It covers my love and leaves not a mark

Chorus:
My love blows down the highway
Like a snow flake in the wind
Fare thee well my summer girl
It’s winter time again
