sleeping at last - snow (string version) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the branches have traded their leaves for white sleeves
all warm+blooded creatures make ghosts as they breathe
scarves are wrapped tightly like gifts under trees
christmas lights tangle in knots annually

[bridge]
our families huddle closely
betting warmth against the cold
our bruises seem to surface
like mud beneath the snow
[verse 2]
so we sing carols softly, as sweet as we know
a prayer that our burdens will lift as we go
like young love still waiting under mistletoе
we’ll welcome dеcember with tireless hope

[chorus]
let our bells keep on ringing
making angels in the snow
may the melody disarm us
when the cracks begin to show
like the petals in our pockets
may we remember who we are
unconditionally cared for
by those who share our broken hearts

[verse 3]
the table is set and our glasses are full
though pieces go missing, may we still feel whole
we’ll build new traditions in place of the old
cause life without revision will silence our souls

[chorus]
let the bells keep on ringing
making angels in the snow
may the melody surround us
when the cracks begin to show
like the petals in our pockets
may we remember who we are
unconditionally cared for
by those who share our broken hearts
[post+chorus]
like the petals in our pockets
may we remember who we are
unconditionally cared for
by those who share our broken hearts

[outro]
as gentle as feathers, the snow piles high
our world gets rewritten and retraced every time
like fresh plates and clean slates, our future is white
new year’s resolutions will reset tonight
