Cold, Cold Sky...

Verse 1:
Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
Icicles form webs of delicate beauty
Time holds memories inside winter's start
Promising hope's return as love departs

Verse 2:
Evening stars hang upon truth and lies
Even after we've said all of our goodbyes
To her, to him, to all that wistfully reminds
To the sun, to the moon, to all we left behind
---
Chorus:
Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
Blanketing the ground with silence
Wrapping our city in tranquility
Creating a world of sentient solace

Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
Time whispers a silent goodnight
Our dreams start to take flight
Inside a sentient world of solace
---
Verse 3:
Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
Airborne thoughts linger in mid-air
Leaving life still and unexpected
When love leaves us unprotected

Verse 4:
A trail of hearts longing and broken
Filled with emotions left unspoken
Lead back to life's bittersweet truth
Where loneliness dwells inside youth
---
Chorus:
Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
Blanketing the ground with silence

Our dreams start to take flight
Inside a sentient world of solace

Verse 5:
Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
That buries fear beneath a blanket of calm
Silence is repealed from prohibition
Long lost dreams are put on exhibition

Verse 6:
Even after childhood dreams disappeared
Love's hidden memories still lived on here
Inside hearts that time and again fall and try
When all life has to offer is more goodbyes
---

Verse 7:
Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
The sparrow's song has flown away
Chasing warmth across skies of silence
Leaving us singing winter's song of solace

Verse 8:
Holding ourselves within morning's quiet dawn
We walk on leaving behind what's done and gone
Even when time tries to silence our knowing
We keep on going inside winds secretly blowing

Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
Blanketing the ground with silence
Wrapping our city in tranquility
Creating a world of sentient solace

Snow falls from the cold, cold sky
Time whispers a silent goodnight
Our dreams start to take flight
Inside a sentient world of solace
