|
Long before |
|
I ever saw |
|
The frost upon your face |
|
I was haunted by your beauty |
|
And it drew me to this place |
|
I felt the chill of mystery |
|
With one foot on your shore |
|
And then and there resolved to go |
|
Where no man had before [Chorus:] |
|
Maybe I was snowblind |
|
But it seemed the wind spoke true |
|
And I believed its stories then |
|
As dreamers sometimes do |
|
In Antarctica |
|
In Antarctica |
|
Who knows what the powers may be |
|
That cause a man to go |
|
Mindless of the dangers |
|
Out across the virgin snow |
|
Seduced by this ambition |
|
I easily forget |
|
The hopeless quest of |
|
Shackleton |
|
The dreamlike death of |
|
Scott [Chorus] |
|
Maybe I was snowblind |
|
Perhaps it sapped my will |
|
But something of my innocence |
|
Is wandering there still |
|
In Antarctica |
|
In Antarctica |
|
In Antarctica |
|
In Antarctica |
