Here Comes the Snow Lyrics

I've been up since one

With fairies in my head

Standing o'er the vent

Repeating what you said

By the window sill

Staring in the dark

Hoping it's still real

And wasn't just a lark

And my nightgown sways

When the heat turns on

I'm combin' out my braids, waitin' for the sun

In the candle light in the dancin' glow

Just before the morning breaks—

Here comes the snow

Christmastime is past

Winter's coming on

But there's one more gift

That I'm waitin' on

The words you spoke to me

Taste like sugarplums

And they make me woozy

Just like buttered rum

And my nightgown sways

When the heat turns on

I'm combin' out my braids, waitin' for the sun

In the candle light in the dancin' glow

Just before the morning breaks—

Here comes the snow

Last night I prayed

"Lord, if it's time

If he be the one

You mean to be mine

Then let it snow

When he comes around

For to take my hand

And kneel on the ground"

And my nightgown sways

When the heat turns on

I'm combin' out my braids, waitin' for the sun

In the candle light in the dancin' glow

Just before the morning breaks—

Here comes the snow

Just before the morning breaks—

Here comes the snow
