Snowflakes kissing ground
A silent touch
Crystal white

Pine wind blows over hilltops
The shadows blush
An owl takes flight

Deep in the forest of the night
Where fireflies dance and tree tops wave 
In sweet surrender
Oh, sweet surrender

In melting moments
Teardrops fall
Softer than the morning dew

A rosebud blossoms red
A robin sings
The day starts new

A winding path of glimmer glow
Never to know which way to go 
So I surrender
Yes I surrender

Glimmer glisten glow
Fire melting snow 
Burning in the night
Oh ancient forest

Feeding the fire as I go
It´s a glimmer glisten glow
Nothing left inside except a 
Flickering flame

The northern skies they stretch
Lightning flash
Air hot and dry

I walk the land
Over hilltops I wander and
Let my spirit fly

A forest fire starts to grow
Just from a spark which was aglow
In sweet surrender
Yes in surrender

Glimmer glisten glow
Fire melting snow 
Spreading through the night
Oh ancient forest

Feeding the fire as I go
It´s glimmer glisten glow
A fleeting flickering flame
Burning out the old
