The Snow Has No Plans to Stay

Lyrics

It falls on the lamp posts and vanishes
It kisses the pavement and goes
No drift on the doorstep, no hush on the roofs
Just a shimmer that nobody knows

You turn up your collar and laugh at the sky
Three flakes in your hair, then they're gone
We walk by the river with nothing to show
But the cold and the song of the walk

The snow has no plans to stay
But we do, we do
It melts on your sleeve and my hand
And I'm still walking next to you
Let the winter come and go unsettled
Let it never keep the ground
The snow has no plans to stay
And I've found my place, I've found

The window of the bakery is fogged with the warmth
We press our hands to the glass
The city is grey, and the flakes are like thoughts
That arrive and quietly pass

Some things settle deep and hold
Some things only brush the air
I would rather be the one who stays
Than the white that isn't there

The snow has no plans to stay
But we do, we do
It melts on your sleeve and my hand
And I'm still walking next to you
Let the winter come and go unsettled
Let it never keep the ground
The snow has no plans to stay
And I've found my place, I've found

And I've found my place, I've found
