[Verse 1] Boots leave blue prints On the front step snow Your breath makes little ghosts By the screen door glow The house is quiet now But your hands still shake You hold the paper cup Like it might not break [Pre-Chorus] Come a little closer Let the cold back out I know that ache you wear I know what it's about The world can wait outside For a while tonight For a while tonight [Chorus] Snowy evening Stay right here Snowy evening Hold me near White on the windows Soft on the town Snowy evening Don't let go now [Verse 2] The maple in the yard Lost every last gold leaf Now it bends like it remembers Something underneath We laugh at how the storm Painted our old fence Then you lean into my shoulder And the whole world makes sense [Pre-Chorus] Come a little closer Let the cold back out I know that ache you wear I know what it's about The world can wait outside For a while tonight For a while tonight [Chorus] Snowy evening Stay right here Snowy evening Hold me near White on the windows Soft on the town Snowy evening Don't let go now [Bridge] If morning takes this glow away We’ll keep it in our sleeves A pocket full of falling light A promise underneath So if the road gets sharp again And if the nights run long Remember how the quiet came And made us feel this strong [Final Chorus] Snowy evening Stay right here Snowy evening Hold me near White on the windows Soft on the town Snowy evening Don't let go now Snowy evening We’re safe and sound
