The White Snows of Winter

The white snows of winter fall
Into the quiet town
The town lies a-sleeping
A-sleeping beneath the down

It soon will be Christmas, bells will be ringing
Bring us another round
But here in the white of a cold winter's night
My love cannot be found, oh

'Twas only October
We danced the fire 'round
I called as I left her
Away from here I'm bound

I've been to the sea and back to the land
And many the hill I've crowned
But here in the white of a cold winter's night
My love cannot be found

And now in the winter
I've come to find her here
My love lies a-sleeping
I know that she is near

It soon will be Christmas, bells will be ringing
Blessings are all around
For here in the white of a warm winter's night
My love at last I've found
Ooh, my love I've found
