Beneath its snowy mantle cold an d clear
The un born grass lies waiting
for its coat to turn to green
The snowbird sings a song
And speaks to me of flowers
that will bloom again in spring
When I was young my heart was
Anything that it would tell me,
that's the thing that I would do
But now I feel such emptiness within
For the thing that I want most in life's
the thing that I can't win
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
And take the snow back with you
where it came from on that day
The one I love forever is untrue
that I would fly away with you
The breeze along the river seems to say
That you'll only break my heart again
So little snowbird take me
To the land of gentle breezes
where the peaceful waters flow
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
And take the snow back with you
where it came from on that day
The one I love forever is untrue
that I would fly away with you
that I would fly away with you
