lyrics

SILENCE OF THE SNOW
(Written by Katherine Wheatley & James Gordon)

The silence of the snow
Slows my heart, stills my breath
Winter’s long deep sleep
Just a beat away from death

I’m wary of the warm wind
That steals the snow too soon
The rogue that robs the woods of white
The brightness from the moon

The silence of the snow
Slows my heart, stills my breath
Winter’s long deep sleep
Just a beat away from death

If the snow is heavy
If winter’s hush is long
Robins in the spring will sing
Even sweeter songs

The silence of the snow
Slows my heart, stills my breath
Winter’s long deep sleep
Just a beat away from death

When the world awakens
From its’ wintry freeze
Blood runs in my veins again
Sap runs in the trees

The silence of the snow
Slows my heart, stills my breath
Winter’s long deep sleep
Just a beat away from death
Winter’s long deep sleep
Just a beat away from death
