Lyrics for The Wolf

We wandered with the wolves in pursuit The hunger hot on our heels Scenting our bloody tracks The fear that fails not to smell fear Seemed we had the same direction Following the fleeing deer With fiery eyes watching each other Cautiously circling and stalking Winter's wind it howled and hollered Gently blew the breeze of summer Scudding were the storms of autumn Southerly saw hope a-stirring And howling in the haunted night Sang the wolves of the wild Shadows scurrying in the moonlight Circling us in the darkness Searing fire in our torches With the cold light of the day Fighting them time and again We drove the wolves away Winter's wind it howled and hollered Gently blew the breeze of summer Scudding were the storms of autumn Southerly saw hope a-stirring Bunt came the spring and misty morning Through the grey borders of sleep I saw a wolf lie by our cave Seeking me night after night Winter's wind it howled and hollered Gently blew the breeze of summer Scudding were the storms of autumn Southerly saw hope a-stirring We drove the wolves away, yeah We drove the wolves away
