Story behind the song
On the way back home from Evergreen, Colorado... Snow and Imagery drifted down into a song...
Lyrics
It's snowing through my garden cause it's winter
The ruby roses change to downy white
Putting on one fashion for another
By any other name they'll die tonight
Maybe I'll be lucky and forget her
By dressing up these naked wounds with frost
But shivering beneath these lonely covers
I know when I wake up I'll still be lost
CHORUS:
Oh, it's snowin
Drowsy woods sway soft against the sky
Barren trees know time will come for growin
Barren hearts will know it's time to cry
It's snowing through my window cause it's ope
Floating down upon my calloused hands
Showing off it's splendor for a moment
Telling me exactly who I am
It's snowin through my soul cause she's a woman
Whose wistful ways leave much to be desired
Though I need the warmth I'll want for no one
Until her drifting memory subsides
CHORUS
CHORUS
