Men of Snow (sing) (seasonal)
Reverse rendition of Ingrid Michaelson's "Men of Snow" men_of_snow_multi_track_sing_02
Here, I create cover songs while I wait for humanity to adopt the Philosophy of Broader Survival.
Play it LOUD and through a good audio device (anything but cell phone speakers, which I did not mix to).

Story behind the song
I'd found good songs to sing from every decade since the Civil War, and I had a hard time finding ones from the 2000's... my daughter helped out...
I wrote response lyrics to the original, to create a more uplifting ending...

Men Of Snow lyrics
Send "Men Of Snow" Ringtone to your Cell
Once I made a man all out of snow
He had the darkest eyes and a button nose
I told him all my sadness and my fear
And he just listened with a snowy ear
But when I came around the next day
My friend had gone and melted all away
I saw his eyes lying on the ground
I made a sound that was something like crying
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/i/ingrid_michaelson/men_of_snow.html ]
Oh, one day you will go away from this
Oh, one day you will know we're men of snow, we melt one day
And winters come, and my love, the winters go
And time stacks up in piles like winter snow
And everything you love and hold so dear
Won't really matter when we disappear
Oh, one day you will go away from this
Oh, one day you will know we're men of snow, we melt one day
Oh, one day you will go away from this
Oh, one day you will know we're men of snow, we melt, you know, we're men of snow.
We melt one day
MY RESPONSE LYRICS
She won me when she made me out of snow
she gave me the warmest eyes and a crinkled nose
she told me all her sadness and her fears
and I just listened with my snowy ears
When she came to see me the next day
it seemed Id gone and melted all away
she saw my eyes lying on the ground
I heard her make a sound
that was a lot like laughing, or was it crying
and she said,
Oh, one day I knew you would go away like this
oh, one day I knew you would melt away
like men of snow, melt away one day, like this
and I said,
Winter comes, and, my love, winter goes
and time stacks up in piles like winter snow
and everything you love and hold so dear
wont really seem to matter when we disappear
She turned and her eyes smiled, which I kissed
and I said,
One day we will melt away, like this
one day we will find were made of snow
and then well melt one day,
but not today, and then we went
and I said,
Oh, one day I knew we would go away from this
oh, one day I knew we would show the world
what matters most in the world
before we melt away like men of snow
away like this
