Steeleye Span Fire & Ice Lyrics

[Singer 1]
I am the breeze that blows
Through everything that grows
I am the blood red rose
In my own season

I am queen of all
I blaze and burn
'till leaves turn gold and fall
To Autumn ground between us
A season still to pass
Before your ice is silence
And stillness come at last

[Singer 2]
As forest colour fades
I come so many ways
From cold remembered days
In my own season

I am king of all
In March I bring the gentle spring and cold
Dormant roots to wake and rise
The frosty ground to thaw
Then wait in mountain glacier
'Til I am needed more
[Together]
Fire and Ice never die
But lie 'til nature's rides are calling
Wait for the calling Fire and Ice never die
But lie in waiting wonder
With savage storms and thunder
Fire and Ice never die...

[Singer 2]
We're given many keys
To unlock as we please
The furnace or the freeze
In our own season

We are lords of all
We sew our seeds
We build the highest walls

Through long mysterious journeys
To the natural sacrifice
Passions parts
But endless seasons
Spin from Fire to Ice

[Together]
Fire and Ice never die
But lie 'til nature's rides are calling
Wait for the calling
Fire and Ice never die
But lie in waiting wonder
With savage storms and thunder
Fire and Ice never die...
Die...
