First Snow lyrics
by Phil Ochs
[Intro]
Here's the other one, it's called "First Snow"
Without the finger picks
[Verse 1]
First snow on the autumn ground
Covers the grass where once she lay down
Blanket of white
Grass out of sight
Where did she go?
Tell me, first snow
[Verse 2]
First snow, uncover my mistakes
Cover the past with your lovely flakes
Perfect white sheet
Beneath my feet
I hurt her so
Cleanse me, first snow
[Verse 3]
First snow, down you dart
Cold as the winter, cold as my heart
Fall from the sky
Please tell me why
I let her go
And lost her, first snow
[Verse 4]
First snow, down you fall
I feel your heartbeat, I hear your call
So I'll lay still
Fall if you will
With autumn I go
Please hurry, first snow
Da da da da
[Outro]
Okay, keep going
