Lyrics
Ooh... first snow
falling slow
It's snowing, love! You call it out the way you always do,
same two words at the window glass... and I still run to you.
The kettle waits, the phone can wait, the night can hold its breath,
two old coats on one porch step...
the sky does all the rest.
The world goes hush and silver,
so the heart can hear.
When the first snow falls,
we're every age we've ever been.
(every age we've ever been)
One flake lands on your open hand, and sixty years land in.
Same sky, same wonder, same two names it's always known.
When the first snow falls...
we begin again.
First snow
begin again
This snow once filled a streetlamp where you first reached for my hand,
it powdered white the church steps... like it always had a plan.
It found us at every address, every roof we've called our own,
snow never buries what we love...
it tucks it in at home.
The world goes hush and silver,
so the heart can hear.
When the first snow falls,
we're every age we've ever been.
(every age we've ever been)
One flake lands on your open hand, and sixty years land in.
Same sky, same wonder, same two names it's always known.
When the first snow falls...
we begin again.
Catch one... on your glove...
Still melts the same...
Still us, my love.
When the first snow falls,
we're every age we've ever been.
(every age we've ever been)
One flake lands on your open hand, and sixty years land in.
Same porch, same light,
same hand in mine the whole way home.
When the first snow falls...
we begin again.
It's snowing, love...
come see.
