lyrics

When dark comes near
It presses up on all the windows
Making all the surfaces feel cold
It lays a blanket over all
The neighbours in the neighbourhood
It keeps itself in shape
It shapes the snow

So we're barricading all the doors
We nap upon the heated floors
Nothing comes between us but warm air
And as we're drifting into dreams
The cold is seeping through the seams
Of the quilted quilt we have to share

And we dream
Of the rivers and streams
That we've sailed
With a crew of three
And we soar
Over valleys and moors
That have never been seen before
'Cept for us

When dark comes near
It presses up on all the windows
Making all the surfaces feel cold
It lays a blanket over all
The neighbours in the neighbourhood
It keeps itself in shape
It shapes the snow

So we swallow tea to keep us warm
And then watch as the tea leaves form
A symbol meaning we'll be friends for good
Outside the trees barenaked branches
Flit about in fretting dances
In unison across the neighbourhood

And we dream
Of the rivers and streams
That we've sailed
With a crew of three
And we soar
Over valleys and moors
That have never been seen before
