On winter days the snow would glisten
like a sea of diamonds in the sun
All bundled up in hat and mittens
I'd be out the door and on the run
Beneath branches of icy lace
Arms held out eyes shut closed
I'd lean back and just let go
A snow white angel I'd spread my wings to the sky
But soon I craved the city lights
They seemed far brighter than the moon on snow
Turned in my wings for earthly things
Forgot the feel of clouds on indigo
I was strong, I was proud
Keeping both feet on the ground
I feared love like I feared heights
A snow white angel I spread my wings to the sky
'cause now you've come along
Like falling snow at dawn
we will climb straight to the heaven's skies
A snow white angel I spread my wings to the sky
'cause now I'm gonna give love a try
On winter days I wait for snow and then I know the angel flies once more
