Some folks like the summertime when they can walk about

Strolling through the meadow green it's fun there's no doubt

But give me the wintertime when snow falls all around

For i found her when the snow was on the ground



Well i traced them footprints in the snow

I traced the footprints in the snow

I can't forget the day my darling lost her way

And i found her when the snow was on the ground





Well i dropped in to see her there was a big round moon

Her mother said she just stepped out be returnin' soon

I found her little footprints and i traced them thru the snow

I found her when the snow was on the ground



Well i traced them footprints in the snow

I traced the footprints in the snow

I can't forget the day my darling lost her way

And i found her when the snow was on the ground



Now she's up in heaven she's with an angel band

I know i gonna meet her in that promised land

But every time the snow falls it brings back memories

For i found her when the snow was on the ground
