Severin Browne - Snow Flakes lyrics

I had a little lady once upon a time. We treated each other might fine. She bent down and scratched her knee when she said to me, "Let me tell you why I'm going away, An old, old friend just pa**ed away. He was my reason for going on and now he's gone." And there are snowflakes falling on the ground, never, never making a sound; they don't complain or they'll turn to rain... they'll turn to rain. Oh my, what a painful surprise! I couldn't believe my ears or my eyes. I said, "Why were you keeping me here if I wasn't so near?" She looked as though she had something to say But instead, well, she just turned away. I never did hear her reply and I wondered why. And there are snowflakes falling on the ground, never, never making a sound; they don't complain or they'll turn to rain... they'll turn to rain. Well, summer came and went away, It left me here to think and pray. I spend a lot of time now by the frozen stream, Because winter's here but won't stay long. It sings to me that sad, old song. And lately I've had that same old dream: And there are snowflakes falling on the ground, never, never making a sound; they don't complain or they'll turn to rain... they'll turn to rain.
