Lyrics

He rode through the streets of the city, Down from his hill on high.

Over winds and the steps and the cobbles,

He rode to a women's cry.

For she was hes secret treasure,

She was his shame and bliss.

And a chain and a keep are nothing,

Compared to a women's kiss.

For hands of gold are always cold,

But a women's hands are warm!

For hands of gold are always cold,

But a women's hands are warm!

Behind the scenes

The song was sung by famous English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, who appeared in a cameo in the Season 7 premiere episode "Dragonstone" as a Lannister soldier. He's appearance on show was organized as a surprise for Maisie Williams, who is a big fan of the singer.
