The White Snows of Winter Lyrics

The white snows of winter
Fall into the quiet town
The town lies a-sleeping
A-sleeping beneath the down

It soon will be Christmas
Bells will be ringing
Bring us another round
But here in the white
Of a cold winter night
My love cannot be found

′Twas only October
We danced the fire round
I called as I left her
"Away from here I'm bound"

I′ve been to the sea
And back to the land
And many's the hill I've crowned
And here in the white
Of a cold winter night
My love cannot be found

And now in the winter
I′ve come to find her here
My love lies a sleeping
I know that she is near

It soon will be Christmas
Bells will be ringing
Blessings are all around
For here in the white
Of a warm winter′s night
My love at last I've found
