|
Once upon a winter |
|
It seems so long ago |
|
My one and only love and I |
|
Fell down upon the snow |
|
And as the dusk was falling |
|
From our gray and goose down sky |
|
We heard the old cathedral bells |
|
Ring out our lullaby |
|
Snow angel, snow angel |
|
Someday I'm gonna fly |
|
This cold and broken heart of mine |
|
Will one day wave goodbye |
|
Goodbye to this cruel wicked world |
|
And all the tears I've cried |
|
Snow angel, snow angel |
|
I'll meet you in the sky |
|
The rumors of a distant war |
|
Called my true love's name |
|
He packed his leather suitcase |
|
And spoke no word of blame |
|
We walked awhile together |
|
I tried to hide my fear |
|
He told me not to be afraid |
|
And whispered in my ear |
|
Snow angel, snow angel |
|
Someday I'm gonna fly |
|
This cold and broken heart of mine |
|
Will one day wave goodbye |
|
Goodbye to this cruel wicked world |
|
And all the tears I've cried |
|
Snow angel, snow angel |
|
I'll meet you in the sky |
|
They brought my love home from the war |
|
In a cart pulled by white mules |
|
The Christmas bells rang out that day |
|
Oblivious as fools |
|
And as the snow began to fall |
|
I kissed his frozen face |
|
They told me in his woolen coat |
|
His last few words were placed |
|
Snow angel, snow angel |
|
Someday I'm gonna fly |
|
This cold and broken heart of mine |
|
Will one day wave goodbye |
|
Goodbye to this cruel wicked world |
|
And all the tears I've cried |
|
Snow angel, snow angel |
|
I'll meet you in the sky |
