Please may I get down from the table? There are hours left in the day There are places I must run to Where shallow enders find their way It's been a long time Such a long time Mum can bark and shout the house down But there are hens with sharper teeth So I hang quiet (Shhh) At the foot of our stairs Wait for your call And out I go Jack Frost has painted the doors and the windows Jack Frost was up before the dawn The clouds come rolling in And the snow falls Flying down the hills On a sledge with rusty rails Onе more run then home It's gеtting colder By the minute The rain gives way To hoped-for snow So I flew out Went round to your house We'll be together For all our lives Jack Frost has painted the doors and the windows Jack Frost was up before the dawn The clouds come rolling in And the snow falls Flying down the hills On a sledge with rusty rails One more run then home But home does not feel like a home anymore The monsters are waiting outside an open door The places you ran to are further away The friends that you ran with have all gone astray Do you remember when snow fell at Christmas? Do you remember the joy? That seems a long time ago And so far from here Perhaps it was a dream If Jack would call once again You may find us Flying down the hills On a sledge with rusty rails One last run then home
