A Winter's Tale (Cosy Fireside Mix) - Queen

It's winter-fall Red skies are gleaming Oh, seagulls are flying over Swans are floatin' by Smoking chimney-tops Am I dreaming? Am I dreaming? The nights draw in There's a silky moon up in the sky Yeah, children are fantasising Grown-ups are standin' by What a super feeling Am I dreaming? Am I dreaming? Woah, woah, woah, woah (Dreaming) So quiet and peaceful (Dreaming) Tranquil and blissful (Dreaming) There's a kind of magic in the air (Dreaming) What a truly magnificent view (Dreaming) A breathtaking scene (With the dreams of the world) (In the palm of your hand) (Dreaming) A cosy fireside chat (Dreaming) A little this, a little that (Dreaming) Sound of merry laughter skippin' by (Dreaming) Gentle rain beatin' on my face (Dreaming) What an extraordinary place (And the dream of the child) (Is the hope of the, hope of the man) It's all so beautiful Like a landscape painting in the sky Yeah, mountains are zoomin' higher Little girls scream and cry My world is spinnin' And spinnin' and spinnin' It's unbelievable Sends me reeling Am I dreaming? Am I dreaming? Ooh, it's bliss

As daybreak breaks the mist upon the earth It came to pass that beauty settled there forever more And as the steam clings close to things to come It came to pass that solid rock did part for humble life Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion Now there's hope reborn with every morning See the future clearly at its dawning Forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness Whilst water slips into the sea The father's sad to see it's free As shadows creep towards their master night It came to pass that trees defied the wind who shook their leaves And as the peace descended all around It came to pass that nature's creatures came to face the world Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion Now there's hope reborn with every morning See the future clearly at its dawning Forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness Whilst water slips into the sea The father's sad to see it's free Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion Now there's hope reborn with every morning See the future clearly at its dawning Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion

Okay I know it's been a minute since we come along The old house you were livin' in is now a synagogue Opa, the hardest part of growin' is the lack of a choice (Yeah) I rolled past that old bowling alley but now it's a vance Rolled past the O'Malley house and the family is gone It's cold now but I'm highly evolved So I don't feel the cold in the car I stopped two blocks from the high school lot On the corner every mornin' where Denae got dropped Pretty broad, mama caught up on the PTA Sneaker off, ditch your class and go to CPK But it's A, okay Still a markin' from the tires, where my old car crashed Metal, glass, burnin' rubber on my old car dashed My boy sleep in the back God damn it another panic from your blow hard dad Fuck around in the back of a Jeep Run amok in the street Follow wakin' in the passenger seat, all aboard That ship don't sail like it did anymore so We're goin' back to the fire side It's been a long time but we're alright We're goin' back to the fire side It's been a long time but we're alright Well it's been so long and you're still so neat Hair still shinin' and you smell so clean Romance those days when you passed back Looks to me on horn-rimmed shades in advanced class books Walked my way in a plaid green skirt Hide that stain on my band t-shirt My friends all laughed when you grabbed my hand Had young love and I lost that chance Man, oh man, how the years slipped by me? Hop off the page with the devil behind me, oh Good fuckin' work Another ten years at the tip of the iceberg We're goin' back to the fire side It's been a long time but we're alright We're goin' back to the fire side It's been a long time but we're alright Okay I know it's been a minute since we come along The old house you were livin' in is now a cinema I'm not growin' by decision or lack of a choice, yeah But I remember the smoke blaze and aimin' the stars Still remember the drunk fights that gave me the scars, all aboard That ship don't sail like it did anymore so We're goin' back to the fire side It's been a long time but we're alright We're goin' back to the fire side It's been a long time but we're alright Just say We might be better off for all those Bruises and the scars The times we missed the mark That made me feel We're goin' back to the fire side It's been a long time but we're alright

Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah You're taking all my sunshine away Making out like you're the main line (I knew that) 'Cause you're a cool cat Tapping on the toe with a new hat Ooh, just cruising Driving along with the swing king Feeling the beat of my heart Feeling the beat of my heart Ooh, you're a cool cat Coming on strong with all the chit chat Ooh, you're alright Hanging out and stealing all the limelight Messing with the beat of my heart Ooh, messing with the beat of my heart, yeah You used to be a mean kid Ooh, making such a deal of life Ooh, you were wishing and hoping And waiting to really hit the big time But did it happen, happen? No, you're speeding to fast, slow down Slow down, you'd better slow down, slow down You really know how to set the mood And you really get inside the groove Cool cat Tapping on the toe with a new hat Ooh, just cruising Driving along like the swing king Feeling the beat of my heart Feeling the beat of my heart, yeah Feeling the beat of my heart Can you feel it? Feeling the beat of my heart, yeah, yeah Feeling the beat of my heart Ooh, ooh, feeling, feeling Feeling ev'ry feeling
