Snowbound by Genesis

Lyrics:
Lay your body down upon the midnight snow,
Feel the cold of winter in your hair
Here in a world of your own,
In a casing that's grown
To a children's delight
That arrived overnight.

And here they come to play their magic games
Carving names upon your frozen hand.
Here in a world of your own,
Like a sleeper whose eyes
Sees the pain with surprise
As it smothers your cries
They'll never never know.

Hey there's a Snowman
Hey, Hey what a Snowman
Pray for the Snowman
Ooh, Ooh what a Snowman
They say a snow year's a good year
Filled with the love of all who lie so deep.

Smiling faces tear your body to the ground
Covered red that only we can see.
Here in a ball that they made
From the snow on the ground,
See it rolling away
Wild eyes to the sky
They'll never, never know.

Hey there's a Snowman
Hey what a Snowman
Pray for the Snowman
Ooh, Ooh what a Snowman
They say a snow year's a good year
Filled with the love of all who lie so deep.

Hey there goes the Snowman
Hey,hey there what a Snowman
Hey there lies the Snowman
Hey he was a Snowman
They say a snow year's a good year
Filled with the love of all who lie so deep.

Hey,there goes the snowman
Hey,hey there what a snowman...

This song is one of the themes to my life as in January of 1983 I was buried in a snowpak from a blizzard. I was an 18 y/o stationed in the airforce wanting to see his girlfriend. I promised my mom I wouldn't go out but I did and somewhere along I-90 I went off the road. They found me 57 hours later just before sunset and I remember looking at the snow blowing off the tops of the Black Hills in the setting sun against a cloudless sky, I will never forget. This song reminds me always of it.

Though this is not a Christmas song, I felt compelled to comment on this beautiful and bittersweet masterpiece from Genesis and their LP "...And Then There Were Three." This is my favorite WINTER song. Please enjoy!

I am a huge fan of your videos...I was bummed when your videos went away. You represent the music thru video 'expertly'. Your musical taste parallels mine and I am particularly fond of your Genesis creations. Excellent work.
