s a snowy mantle cold and clean
The unborn grass lies waiting for
its coat to turn to green
And speaks to me of flowers
that will bloom again in spring
my heart was young then too
Anything that it would tell me,
that's the thing that I would do
But now I feel such emptiness within
For the thing that I want most in life
is the thing that I can't win
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
And take the snow back with you
where it came from that day
Though what I love forever is un sure
And if I could, you know that
I would fly away with you
That it'd only break my heart again
take me with you when you go
To the land of gentle breezes
where the peaceful waters flow
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
And take the snow back with you
where it came from on that day
The one I left for a reason too
And if I could you'd know that
I would fly away with you
know that I would fly away with you
