You've been waiting in the snow
But I'd never have thought to look up
To find you as you’re softly falling all around
The curse of what we don't know
And a gross lack of sense
Is what froze me in my tracks
Though it hasn't quite been cold enough for that

Our hearts still beat a song
We lose track of the rhythm
But slowly sway along
We'll synchronize
We're keeping time

I've been expecting snow
But I'd never have thought I’d look up
And smile as it's softly falling all around
The beauty of the unknown
And count it as bliss
You froze me in my tracks
Though our love is far too warm for that

Every bit of love
Every thought and raw reaction is a snowflake
Never the same shape
But when my eyes get fixed on yours
I know precisely which flakes I want to cover me
Sent by heaven's purity from you to this tapestry of broken things

God, I hope these words
And poorly crafted metaphors
Can speak some truth to you
So you'll see what you do to me

It's the first snow of the winter
Though I'm warmer than I've been for quite some time
