There's a house in the forest With snow all around it and a light In a window where no light should be 'cause Baby's crying his voice it is drifting down a hall to his mama, wrapped in darkness, asleep Now Mama is waking, the time she's checking As she leaves the side of her man
deep in sleep In her arms now is Baby but she can't help but worry that in his dreams he's seeing what no child should see There's a house in the forest With snow all around it and a peace Like a blanket, covers all those who sleep
