Lyrics
Morning comes in silver on the glass Every little leaf wears a coat of white I breathe a cloud and watch it pass The first frost came in the night The garden holds its breath so still The old wall sparkles, thin and bright I press my hand against the sill The first frost came in the night Frost on the window, frost on the pane Something was lost and something came Cold little flowers, drawn by the dark Hold them a moment, hold them a moment Frost on the window, frost on the pane The summer was a long goodbye Now the world has turned to light I miss the warm, I do not cry The first frost came in the night Frost on the window, frost on the pane Something was lost and something came Cold little flowers, drawn by the dark Hold them a moment, hold them a moment Frost on the window, frost on the pane Wait for the sun, wait for the sun It will melt it all away But for now it is here, it is here Let it stay, let it stay Frost on the window, frost on the pane Something was lost and something came Cold little flowers, drawn by the dark Hold them a moment, hold them a moment Frost on the window, frost on the pane The first frost came in the night The first frost came in the night
