Snow falls
Slow in big flakes

     Listen...
     Can you hear it

          The softness of it hitting the ground
          Covering everything a thin white blanket

               Listen...
               Can you hear it

                    The thud of my heat
                    As I watch you

                         Feel it...
                         The cold that surrounds out hear

                              It's chilling, right to the bone
                              Flakes land and melt on the skin

                                   Feel it...
                                   The cold that surrounds me here

                                        The cold that comes back
                                        When you leave my arms

                                             See...
                                             The flakes fall

                                                  Thick and growing in number
                                                  Put a hand out and catch one


                                                       See...
                                                       The snow fall

                                                           ­ As you drive away
                                                            ­The truck not even warm yet

                                                            ­     Later...
                                                        ­         The snow will stop

                                                           ­           It will leave a thick blanket
                                                         ­             That keeps the earth warm

                                                           ­                Later...
                                                        ­                   The snow will stop

                                                           ­                     You will come back
                                                            ­                    A thick blanket covering us, asleep tight together
