Alela Diane

The Snow

As I close my eyes, I listen to the freeway

As I close my eyes, I listen to the freeway

As I close my eyes, I listen to the freeway

I miss the days when

I could hear my mother's bracelets

As she walked down the hall

I could hear the sound of her bracelets as she walked

But what happened to you and all the things you used to say

Because today there's a dark cloud

There's a dark cloud up above my head

There's a dark cloud up above my head

There's a dark cloud up above my head

And from now on the snow must fall

But maybe tomorrow it will melt

And I'll look in your eyes now

It brings me down, down down down down

The trees in your backyard

They wither somehow

And I feel a lot like them now

And I lay in your bed now

I want to listen to the blood pump through your veins

But I don't feel like I can now

And what happened to you and all the things you used to say

Because today there's a dark cloud

There's a dark cloud up above my head

There's a dark cloud up above my head

There's a dark cloud up above my head

And from now on the snow must fall

But maybe tomorrow it will melt

And soon I'll be back home

And I'll listen to the cars once more

And I'll hope that we'll walk in moonlight

Talk about the world

We'll wake up real early to watch the rising sun

And then I'll look into your eyes

And I'll know that the snow will never fall again

But what happened to you and all the things you used to say

Because today there's a dark cloud

There's a dark cloud up above my head

There's a dark cloud up above my head

There's a dark cloud up above my head

And from now on the snow must fall

But maybe tomorrow it will melt

I hope that it will melt

You say it might
