You said that we would watch the fake snow fall,
Because we never see real snow, we said;
Instead we sat there empty in the mall.

There on the sofa, cozy, all in all,
Resting softly on my shoulder your head,
You said that we would watch the fake snow fall.

We slowly ate sandwiches, in our tall
Chairs; should have been thinking, What lies ahead?
Instead we sat there empty in the mall.

Sometimes, I sat and hoped for you to call,
Thinking about everything that you said;
You said that we would watch the fake snow fall.

The people walked on by.  I watched them all,
And I wanted us to leave, but instead,
Instead we sat there empty in the mall.

The end of winter neared, flowers bloomed red.
We kissed; you said, We’re through, and then you fled.
You said that we would watch the fake snow fall;
Instead we sat there empty in the mall.
