Driftin' Snow - Willie P. Bennett
I came down from Thessalon
Toronto's not my home
I miss the north country so much
No longer will I roam
Drifting snow around my window
Drifting snow around my door
Drifting snow around my brains Lord
Won't be no drifting anymore
I'm sitting here waiting for the winter to die
Well sometimes I hope I never make it through
And the things that I believe aren't about to fight
With the things I know inside are true
All the friends that I have had
Or misplaced along the way
No amount of energy could ever bring them back
It weighs down on me like a ton
It never was no fun
But I never meant to do any harm
Drifting snow around my window
Drifting snow around my door
Drifting snow around my brains Lord
Won't be no drifting anymore
Well I'm running as silent as a sleeping train
Hey moon, hey moon won't you shine down on me
I need your light to give me direction
The further off I get the better off I'Il be
All the time that I have spent
Or misplaced along the way
No amount of energy could ever bring it back
It weighs down on me like a ton
It never was no fun
But I never meant to do any harm
Drifting snow around my window
Drifting snow around my door
Drifting snow around my brains Lord
Won't be no drifting anymore
