Winter Comes

The north wind blows bringing this summer to an end
 It's been the longest one by memories of men
 Some say a grim omen of long winter to come
 I say a welcome to its unforgotten song
 A man in black comes fleeing from the northern Wall
 I bring my sword down and I see his head fall
 My son and bastard race off toward the castle
 But on the way they find a corpse in the snow
 A rotting bitch with bloody neck wound
 Six direwolves came from her womb
 Three to my sons, two for my daughters
 One white as snow left to the bastard
 Winter comes hailing troubled times for the future of our world
 We'll stand and endure the cold 'til the summer comes again
 ♪
 A banner waves a crowned stag on golden field
 My friend and king arrives and so I bend to kneel
 He would have none of it and bid his friend to stand
 He comes to ask my place be at his right hand
 Should I agree I'd leave my home and family
 Should I refuse I would dishonor my fealty
 Hand of the King - I'll rule in the king's stead
 Though with this power comes a target on my head
 A direwolf of my name's banner
 Had taken antler to the neck
 Could this be my kin's future
 I dread to think what happens next
 To the Keep, where the truth lies buried beneath a web of lies
 I'll seek the answer to the riddle left to me
 ♪
 The last Hand had left the secret
 His final words on tortured breath
 "The seed is strong," but not of Robert
 And now he rides off to his death
 My friend is dead and I find myself caught up now
 In this Game of Thrones you win or die
 So my fate is sealed this day
 ♪
 Winter comes!
 Winter comes!
 Winter comes!
