DT Lyrics:

Subject: Lyric Request: In the deepening snow
From: Paulus
Date: 17 Nov 98 - 04:12 AM

Does anyone have the full lyrics to a song about with the following lines:

Won't you please let the Winter go quick Lord, So the flowers around him can grow, 'Cause I can't stand the thought of my darling, Lying there in the deepening snow.

It's about some one being sad in the Winter as it starts to snow, missing a loved one.

Thanks.

Some friends of mine are in a bluegrass and actually perform this song quite often. They have their own website- ChapmanFamilyBand.com. Email them and I'm sure they'll be happy to send you the lyrics. Do you know the melody?? They may actually have it on one of their tapes now, not sure. Good luck!!!

Hi,
Thanks for all your help, here are the lyrics for anyone else who might be interested.

Paulus.

===================================

It's snowing out there in the garden.
I sat here and watched it all night.
The kids will be thrilled when they wake up.
To see all the snow deep and white.

But the snow makes me think of my darling
how she hated the snow and the cold
Now she lies in a grave back in Knoxville.
With a grave stone that's just one year old.

Chorus
Won't you please make the winter go quick lord.
So the flowers around her may grow.
I can't stand the thought of my darlin'.
Lying there 'neth the deepening snow.

Little Jenny climbs up on my knee now
Asking daddy what causes the snow
I tell her of the wonderful father
Who cares for us all here below

And I hold her so close and I kiss her
And she kissing back doesn't know
That my kiss was meant for her mother
Lying there 'neath the deepening snow

Chorus
