I can see you there
Oh, in the snowbank, with a snowman at your side
In my heart and in my spirit I concede
The things you want in life you have to really need
This is a matter of life (This is a matter of life)
Only parents cry (Only parents cry)
Oh, when they want to show the world they’re still alive
And in my heart and in my spirit I believe
The draft beneath the door frame comes to challenge me
This is a matter of life (This is a matter of life)
Oh, be kind to me (Oh, be kind to me)
Oh, Benjamin who keeps his hands inside his sleeves
And in my heart and in my spirit I can read
The way he brushed his beard against the cedar tree
(This is a matter of life) Keeping his eyes upon me
I can see you there
Oh, in the snowbank, with a snowman at your side
And in my heart and in my spirit I can see
The things you want in life you have to really need
(This is a matter of life)
