Loreena McKennitt - Snow Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • White are the far-off plains
  • And white the fading forests grow
  • The wind dies out along the height
  • Denser still the snow
  • A gathering weight on roof and tree
  • Falls down scarce audibly
  • The meadows and far-sheeted streams
  • Lie still without a sound
  • Like some soft minister of dreams
  • The snowfall hoods me around
  • In wood and water, earth and air
  • A silence is everywhere
  • Save when it lowly spills
  • Some farmer's sleigh is urged on
  • With rustling runners and sharp bells
  • Swings by me and is gone
  • Or from the empty waste I hear
  • A sound remote and clear
  • The barking of a dog
  • To cattle is sharply pealed
  • Borne echoing from some wayside stall
  • Or barnyard far afield
  • Then all is silent and the snow
  • Falls settling soft and slow
  • The evening deepens and the gray
  • Folds closer earth and sky
  • The world seems shrouded so far away
  • Its noises sleep, and I
  • As secret as yon buried stream
  • Plod dumbly on and dream
  • And dream...
