Over the Rhine - Snowed In With You Lyrics

When you come home and all the world's asleep
I'll close my eyes and breathe with sweet relief
This world has had you long enough for now
And when I get you home I'll show you how

I wanna get snowed in with you
I wanna shake off these winter blues
These ain't no blues that I can use
And when the lights are gleaming
I'll be leaning into you, what's a girl to do'

I wanna get snowed in with you
I'm gonna make every effort to be so good to you
That when the snow melts away
You'll want to stay snowed in with me

Till it's time to take down the tree
And it's all I really need, baby
To be alone a while with you
What's a girl to do'

Drift with me while we're still awake
Every new snowflake is like a wish we make
Dream with me leave your cares far behind
Is all love snow blind' Let me awake in time to find

That I'm snowed in with you
I'm gonna make every effort to be so good to you
That when the snow melts away
You'll want to stay snowed in with me
