Snowglobe Summer

Paroles de « Snowglobe Summer »

Verse

I shook the little snowglobe and it snowed in mid-July
Seven flurries on a farmhouse and a plastic purple sky
And the tiny frozen family didn't seem to mind a bit
They've been standing in a blizzard since the day I was a kid

Chorus

It's a snowglobe summer, it's a sweet impossible thing
Every season in a circle, every circle in a ring
Put your ear against the glass and you can hear the little town
Saying everything is falling and it's lovely coming down

Verse

There's a girl inside the water with an umbrella made of tin
And she waves at me on Sundays when the light is coming in
I would trade my whole geography, my whole enormous year
For an afternoon of weather that is small enough to steer

Chorus

It's a snowglobe summer, it's a sweet impossible thing
Every season in a circle, every circle in a ring
Put your ear against the glass and you can hear the little town
Saying everything is falling and it's lovely coming down

Bridge

When the winter finds the window and the window finds the floor
I'll be counting all the snowflakes that I couldn't count before
Shake it up and let it settle, shake it up and let it be
There's a whole entire winter that is small enough for me

Chorus

It's a snowglobe summer, it's a sweet impossible thing
Every season in a circle, every circle in a ring
Put your ear against the glass and you can hear the little town
Saying everything is falling and it's lovely coming down
