(Bob Shane/Tom Drake)
|
The white snows of winter fall into the quiet town.
|
The town lies asleeping. Asleeping beneath the down.
|
It soon will be Christmas. Bells will be ringing. Bring us another round.
|
But here in the white of a cold winter night, my love cannot be found.
|
|
'Twas only October, we danced the fire out.
|
I called as I left her, "Away from here I'm bound."
|
I've been to the sea and back to the land and many's the hill I've crowned,
|
And here in the white of a cold winter night, my love cannot be found.
|
|
And now in the winter I've come to find her here.
|
My love lies a sleeping. I know that she is near.
|
It soon will be Christmas. Bells will be ringing. Blessings are all around,
|
For here in the white of a warm winter's night, my love at last I've found
