Passing The Time

It is a cold winter

Away is the songbird

And gone is her traveller

She waits at home

The sun is on holiday

No leaves on the trees

The animals sleep

While cold North wind blows

The snowflakes are falling

The roof a white blanket

There's ice on the window pane

She waits alone

She sits by the fireside

The room is so warm

Her children are sleeping

She waits in their home

Passing the time

Passing the time everything fine

Passing the time having the wine

Passing the time drinking red wine

Passing the time drinking red wine

Passing the time drinking red wine

Passing the time everything fine

Passing the time drinking red wine

Passing the time everything fine

Passing the time wine and time rhyme

Passing the time

It is a long winter

Away is the summer

She waits for her traveller

So far from home

She sits by the fireside

The room is so warm

There's ice on the window

She's lonely alone
