Takes

Lyrics

[verse]

Another city, another warm December,

The window shows me palm trees and grey rain.

But when I close my eyes I still remember

The creak of frozen steps, my mother's windowpane.

[chorus]

So I'm wishing like a kid again tonight:

Let the cold come back and paint the rooftops bright,

Let the flakes fall slow on every street I know —

And may everybody's home be warm below.

[verse]

They say the magic's gone — I know it isn't:

It smells of pine and clementines and smoke.

Wherever in this world you spend the season,

May one small snowfall find you and walk you home.

[chorus]

So I'm wishing like a kid again tonight:

Let the cold come back and paint the rooftops bright,

Let the flakes fall slow on every street I know —

And may everybody's home be warm below.

[outro]

Let it fall on the city, soft and slow…

Snow like back then. Snow like back home.

Another city, another warm December,
The window shows me palm trees and grey rain.
But when I close my eyes I still remember
The creak of frozen steps, my mother's windowpane.

Let the cold come back and paint the rooftops bright,
Let the flakes fall slow on every street I know —
And may everybody's home be warm below.
