Lyrics

Snowed in a While

You, you close the door up and you say
it'll be drifts a mile wide
that is no ordinary sky

And I, I catch my breath with air so cold
and it'll storm all through the night
until the stars are out of sight

The world can wait, we've got a reason
everything's covered with a blanket of white
all that I want is right here beside me
snowed in a while

Soon, all of our footprints gone from view
and with their branches piled high
December pines against the sky

And you, you put more wood onto the fire
and as the quiet hours go
we watch the embers burning low

The world can wait, we've got a reason
everything's covered with a blanket of white
all that I want is right here beside me
snowed in a while with you

The world can wait, we've got a reason
everything's covered with a blanket of white
all that I want is right here beside me
snowed in a while with you
snowed in a while with you
snowed in a while with you
