Passing The Time

<br>It is a cold winter,<br>Away is the songbird.<br>And gone is her traveller,<br>She waits at home.<br>The sun is on holiday,<br>No leaves on the trees.<br>The animals sleep<br>While cold North wind blows.<br>The snowflakes are falling,<br>The roof a white blanket.<br>There`s ice on the window pane,<br>She waits alone.<br>She sits by the fireside,<br>The room is so warm.<br>Her children are sleeping,<br>She waits in their home.<br>Passing the time.<br>Passing the time, everything fine.<br>Passing the time, having the wine.<br>Passing the time, drinking red wine.<br>Passing the time, drinking red wine.<br>Passing the time, drinking red wine.<br>Passing the time, everything fine.<br>Passing the time, drinking red wine.<br>Passing the time, everything fine.<br>Passing the time, wine and time rhyme.<br>Passing the time.<br>It is a long winter,<br>Away is the summer.<br>She waits for her traveller<br>So far from home.<br>She sits by the fireside,<br>The room is so warm.<br>There`s ice on the window,<br>She`s lonely alone.
