The first day of winter, three days before Christmas We were headed to Boston on some kind of business The gale blew up and the ship came unstuck It was clear we were clean out of luck Bold Captain Robert, he tried hard to save us And he might have made it, but waves, they betrayed us He did what he had to do, held on the whole night But finally gave up his life Now Richard's exposed and my toes and my nose are froze I don't suppose that he'll still be proposing I can't even feel the cold anymore I'm just starting now to think twice I'm Lydia, frozen in ice Under the lighthouse, dashed up on the rocks Wrapped tight in a blanket, turned stiffer than stocks The keeper was brave and I prayed he forgave me We may never hear our last rights The captain was gone, a peculiar phenomenon Dawned on the neighbours and dogs in the snow As they hitched up the sleigh and they took us away Perhaps to our last paradise Oh, Lydia's frozen in ice Some say he still walks on the shore in the glint of the Owl's Head light On the first day of winter Our hearts were soon melted, they called it a miracle Survival, a mystery, new love, a thrill "What is all this?" is the first thing he said to me Hard to believe all the time he would spend with me Two hundred years on and they'll still tell the story But everything comes with a price When Lydia's frozen in ice Lydia's frozen, forever she is frozen Oh, Lydia's frozen in time, she is frozen Lydia's frozen in ice Lydia's frozen in time, she is frozen Oh, Lydia's frozen in ice
