Please may I get down
From the table?
There are hours left in the day
There are places I must run to
Where shallow enders find their way
It's been a long time
Such a long time

Mum can bark and shout the house down
But there are hens with sharper teeth
So I hang quiet
At the foot of our stairs
Wait for your call
And out I go


Jack Frost has painted the doors and the windows
Jack Frost was up before the dawn
The clouds come rolling in
And the snow falls
Flying down the hills
On a sledge with rusty rails
Onе more run then home

It's gеtting colder
By the minute
The rain gives way
To hoped-for snow

So I flew out
Went round to your house
We'll be together
For all our lives

Jack Frost has painted the doors and the windows
Jack Frost was up before the dawn
The clouds come rolling in
And the snow falls
Flying down the hills
On a sledge with rusty rails
One more run then home

But home does not feel like a home anymore
The monsters are waiting outside an open door
The places you ran to are further away
The friends that you ran with have all gone astray

Do you remember when snow fell
At Christmas?
Do you remember the joy?
That seems a long time ago
And so far from here
Perhaps it was a dream
If Jack would call once again
You may find us
Flying down the hills
On a sledge with rusty rails
One last run then home
