**When the Whole World Turns White** [Intro – A Cappella Voices] [Mmm-mmm, soft male and female harmonies gradually joining] Mmm-mmm... Mmm-mmm... [Verse 1 – Female Lead] From city roofs to mountain roads, from frozen harbors to the pines, every window holds a story, every fire becomes a sign. Some are dancing through the snowfall, some are finding their way home. Still beneath this winter sky, none of us is here alone. [Pre-Chorus – Male Lead] Listen, can you hear it rising underneath? Engines, footsteps, skates and heartbeats falling into beat. [Chorus – Both Leads] When the whole world turns white, we come alive, we come alive. Turn the cold into a chorus, turn the darkness into light. Every road and every rooftop, every heart beneath the sky starts to beat a little louder when the whole world turns white. [Post-Chorus – Group Vocals] Oh-oh, hear it rolling through the night. Oh-oh, we come alive. [Verse 2 – Alternating Voices] A driver clears the road before sunrise, two strangers skate beneath the moon. Three old friends build one more snowman, laughing, singing out of tune. On a summit, someone falls in love, by a fire, someone dreams. And a silent sleigh keeps moving through a world of silver trees. [Pre-Chorus – Both Leads] Different words and different voices rise together in the air. All the miles between our stories cannot change the night we share. [Chorus – Full Band] When the whole world turns white, we come alive, we come alive. Turn the cold into a chorus, turn the darkness into light. Every road and every rooftop, every heart beneath the sky starts to beat a little louder when the whole world turns white. [Instrumental Rise] [Electric guitar melody, strings, deep drums and wordless voices] [Bridge – Piano and Cello] If winter teaches anything, it isn’t how to hide. It shows how one small light can lead another through the night. So keep the window glowing, leave a place beside the fire. Every time the cold grows stronger, we will lift each other higher. [Breakdown – Layered Humming] Mmm-mmm, carry through the night. Mmm-mmm, keep the fire alive. [Drums Return] Oh-oh, hear it rolling through the night. Oh-oh, we come alive. [Brief Silence] [Final Chorus – Key Lift, All Voices] When the whole world turns white, we come alive, we come alive. Every city, every mountain turns the darkness into light. All the roads that brought us here are shining side by side. Hear a million hearts beat louder when the whole world turns white. [Final Hook – Choir and Full Band] Oh-oh, hear it rolling through the night. Oh-oh, we come alive. Mmm-mmm, carry it into morning when the whole world turns white. [Outro – A Cappella Voices] Mmm-mmm... Mmm-mmm... When the whole world turns white.
