Lay your body down upon the midnight snow,

Feel the cold of winter in your hair

Here in a world of your own,

In a casing that's grown

To a children's delight

That arrived overnight.



And here they come to play their magic games

Carving names upon your frozen hand.

Here in a world of your own,

Like a sleeper whose eyes

Sees the pain with surprise

As it smothers your cries

They'll never never know.



Hey there's a Snowman

Hey, Hey what a Snowman

Pray for the Snowman

Ooh, Ooh what a Snowman

They say a snow year's a good year

Filled with the love of all who lie so deep.



Smiling faces tear your body to the ground

Covered red that only we can see.

Here in a ball that they made

From the snow on the ground,

See it rolling away

With wild eyes to the sky

They'll never, never know.



Hey there's a Snowman

Hey what a Snowman

Pray for the Snowman

Ooh, Ooh what a Snowman

They say a snow year's a good year

Filled with the love of all who lie so deep.



Hey there goes the Snowman

Hey there what a Snowman

Hey there lies the Snowman

Hey he was a Snowman

They say a snow year's a good year

Filled with the love of all who lie so deep
