Come closer to the window frame
Window to the dark and the field of snow
I saw you running like summer flame
Running through the grass, turning gold to black

Oh! turn the dirt over
If you wanna grow back
Oh! open up the shutters
See the moon light on the snow

You left your brother in a northern town
Took the ferry o'er the water on the bay
His body covered by the colors going down
The statue in the square before the wind could change

Oh! turn the water over
If you wanna flow down
Oh! open up the shutters
See the fallen snow
Fallen snow

Oh! turn the water over
If you wanna flow down
Oh! open up the shutters
See the fallen snow
Fallen snow

Come softly to the window frame
Window through the dark and the field of snow
I saw you running like a summer flame
Running through the grass, turning gold to black

Oh! turn the dirt over
If you wanna grow black
Oh! open up the shutters
See the moonlight on the snow
