Porcelain Snowfall-6-@@@

(Verse 1) The furnace breathes a sigh against the glass Streetlight orange on the drifts that pass A single mug of tea, the steam a ghost For the one who's host and the only guest The floorboards settle with a patient creak A language that the lonely hours speak (Chorus) It's a porcelain snowfall, a delicate hush Covering rooftops in a single, silent brush Each flake a memory, fragile and bright In the deep blue stillness of the night This quiet kingdom, crystalline and vast A beautiful shadow the day has cast (Verse 2) There's a box of silver in the hallway dust With tangled lights surrendered to their rust A paper angel, one wing out of place Traces of a smile time can't erase No carols echo, just the hum and drone Of a city sleeping, leaving me alone (Chorus) It's a porcelain snowfall, a delicate hush Covering rooftops in a single, silent brush Each flake a memory, fragile and bright In the deep blue stillness of the night This quiet kingdom, crystalline and vast A beautiful shadow the day has cast
