Pale as a bride's diamond dress
As the winter brings a union 'tween the earth and sky this veil
Will conceal and suppress
He is listening and glistening in her cold caress
White as the skies' milky clouds
Now the air is softly swirling with the endless flakes of light
As they fall with no sound
Gliding intricate and infinite, smothering the ground
From the mountain's peak to the plain
Only memories of this land remain
All he was is lost, nature's cost
He's enveloped in her velvet skin, sealed inside the frost
From the valley's heart to the hills
Every inch of her lies soft and still
Holding him below, won't let go
He is bound beneath her silken sheets, sleeping under snow
