"Man of Snow" lyrics

Man of Snow                           April 2011          Nanci Hobson

 

I made a man of snow today.

He let me tie his hands.

I touched his cheeks… his eyes of stone

They were all at my command…

I laid down….beside him…

A bed of cold and damp….

I closed my eyes I let my mind

Go blank….completely blank…

 

(Chorus)

And I hear you’ve gone to higher ground

White mountains in July

Too far away for apology

Out of sight……out of mind.

 

I do not want to follow you

You might be changed somehow

Different skies …breed different minds….

Would I even know you now?

I’ll stay here with my man of snow

I’ll love him in the dark

I’ll keep him from the killing sun

And never will we part….

 (repeat chorus)

 

And the sum of my existence here

Is one…..plus nothing….

Nothing at all. 

About my song

I wrote this song last Spring, a year after a goodbye that was never said.  If I had had the nerve to say it, maybe I would not have written this song.
