Lyrics
Snow on the rooftop, snow on the lid The little hive is warm in there A hum like a lamp that is kept alive Soft in the frozen air Hum, little hive, hum Winter cannot make you numb Huddle close, huddle close Hum, little hive, hum Down in the city the windows glow The wind goes round the chimney pots Inside the dark there is a gold Small and warm and not alone Hum, little hive, hum Winter cannot make you numb Huddle close, huddle close Hum, little hive, hum Spring is a long way off But the warmth is here tonight Every wing a tiny fire Turning in the quiet Hum, little hive, hum Winter cannot make you numb Huddle close, huddle close Hum, little hive, hum Hum, little hive Hum
