dodie - smile at snow lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]

ten christmases ago
how were we to know
that the cold would be freezing, the world would be white
but no one is leaving presents tonight
that word has been hushed, it’s almost a joke
the idea of christmas somewhere became dumb
now december is just another sad month

[pre-chorus]

but somewhere in winter misery
people still dream secretly of a time they used to know
when people would smile at snow

[chorus]

there were sweeties and chocolates and toys and lights
carrots and cookies for santa tonight
hot chocolates and crackers and family smiles
laughter with loved ones we hadn’t seen in a while
bad jokes and brandy and music and games
watching old movies while the fireplace fades
jumpers and cinnamon and glittery trees
oh, remember how good it could be
yeah, remember how good it could be

[verse2]

so people plod on with their everyday lives
you might catch a glimpse if you’re walking past a dump
the slight sparkle of tinsel, covered in mud
but some are sick of this grey, they form a plan, they say
we’ll bring back christmas
we’ll put on a show
sure we’ll be laughed at, but we all know

[pre-chorus]

but somewhere in winter misery
people still dream secretly of a time they used to know
when people would smile at snow

[chorus]

there were sweeties and chocolates and toys and lights
carrots and cookies for santa tonight
hot chocolates and crackers and family smiles
laughter with loved ones we hadn’t seen in a while
bad jokes and brandy and music and games
watching old movies while the fireplace fades
jumpers and cinnamon and glittery trees
oh, remember how good it could be
yeah, remember how good it could be

so they gathered all they could
it wasn’t much but it would do
when the sun rose on christmas and the snowy day begun
for the first time in years, carols were sung
first people chuckled, then their eyes filled with tears
soon the whole world was singing, church bells were ringing
how have we missed out on all of these years?

[pre-chorus variation]

now somewhere in winter misery
old excitement makes people happy and now they all know
that people will smile at snow

[chorus]

cause there’s sweeties and chocolates and toys and lights
carrots and cookies for santa tonight
hot chocolates and crackers and family smiles
laughter with loved ones we hadn’t seen in a while
bad jokes and brandy and music and games
watching old movies while the fireplace fades
jumpers and cinnamon and glittery trees
oh, look how good it can be
yeah, look how good it can be
