Snow in the Willamette Valley

It's so quiet out here on these suburban streets

Not even a car or a train can be heard

Yeah this town has a population, but it feels like it's only me

Now that the snow has come and covered this Earth

But all this is going to melt

And all this ice is going to thaw

And it might take a while before I see everyone else

But a temporary solitary life isn't too bad after all

Yeah those layers of white Winter are so thick

And if I laid down I'd be swallowed whole

But I wouldn't want to do such a thing unless I wanted to get sick

And my health is something that I'd rather keep controlled

But all this is going to melt

And all this ice is going to thaw

Yeah, it might take a while before I see everyone else

But a temporary solitary life isn't too bad after all

So as a child I always wanted a snow day

And now that day, that day has come

But I no longer live a life in such a childlike state

Yeah I've forgotten just exactly where I've come from

And all this is going to melt

And all this ice is going to thaw

And it might take a while before I see everyone else

But a temporary solitary life isn't too bad after all

Yeah all this is going to melt

And all this ice is going to thaw

And it might take a while before I see everyone else

But a temporary solitary life isn't too bad after all
