Wintry Smile
(Text: Seibold; Musik: Filipitsch/Seibold)
Dezember 2002, Januar 2003

What a goddam gleam of light
dares to take my sight,
sucks and ends
my night.

What’s that aching? It’s my head,
or the rest of it… I had
a lot of anything
instead.

What remains is my wintry smile… and me

Left me without a trace of doubt.
Lucky you! Left me, proud
to get the last chance
to bale out.

There’s no lead on my ship of love.
You look down at this cutter from above,
overload and soiled
from me… dove.

What remains is my wintry smile
just my wintry smile … and lonesome me.

What remains is my wintry smile
just my wintry smile … to me… and surplus me.

Loaf, lad, hang on without hope!
No affinity for dope,
what a pity, and at the end
of my rope.

By the way – what rope would stand my weight?
But would I risk to decide my fate?
I guess if, you wouldn’t have
left me, Kate…

What remains is my wintry smile,
remains my wintry smile and me,
remains my wintry smile,
what remains ist my wintry smile … and awesome me.
