Testo di Deepening Snow

It's snowing out there in the gloaming I've sat here and watched it all night The kids will be thrilled when they awaken and look at the fields deep and white But the snow makes me think of my darling for she hated the snow and the cold Now she lies in a grave back in Knoxville with a headstone that's just one year old Oh please make the winter go quick Lord so the flowers around her can grow For I can't stand the thought of my darling lying there in the deepening snow Little Nancy climbs up on my knee now saying daddy just what causes snow And I tell of the wonderful father who cares for us all here below Then I hold her so close and I kiss her and she kissing back doesn't know That my kiss is meant for her mother lying there in the deepening snow Oh please make the winter go quick Lord...
