Lyrics

The Legend of Snow
Tiny Diamonds, In the air
People stop, point and stare
Whirlwind dance, among the trees
Precious are such moments as these.

Makes me happy, makes me smile
Lose my worries for a little while
Childlike, on my tongue Now I ?member how it feels to be young

Mother needs a drink, to soothe her aching soul,
Her man has stole her virginity and left her in the hole. Well
time won?t soothe the wounds, oh no, no won?t be enough
When the last drop of water is gone - it?s gonna be rough

Would you help a dying man as he lay, shriveled in the sun?
Spare him a drop of water although, it may be his very last one?
Well the life you save, believe it or not, may be no stranger to you.
Spare a drop of water right now, you may save me too.

So bless the snow as it falls on down from the blackened sky.
And bless the rivers where they rise and water you and I.
God bless the oceans where they roar, please before it?s too late.
I?m telling you friends there is no time, no time to wait.

Long ago and far away, the snow fell from the sky.
But not no more no not today, the land is brown and dry.
People starving in a world where nothing can grow.
Whisper sadly of another time, of the legend of snow.
