Snow
Rosemary Clooney (1) Lyrics

Snow
The singer is expressing their longing for snow.

It won't be long before we'll all be there with snow
Snow will come soon and everyone will enjoy it.

I want to wash my hands, my face and hair with snow
The singer wishes to experience the refreshing feeling of washing with snow.

I long to clear a path and lift a spade of snow
The artist desires to physically interact with snow: shoveling it, playing with it, etc.

Oh, to see a great big man entirely made of snow
The artist imagines the joy of seeing a large, artistic snow sculpture.

Where it's snowing All winter through That's where I want to be Snowball throwing That's what I'll do How I'm longing to ski Through the snow-oh-oh-oh-oh
The singer wants to be in a place where there is snow all winter so that they can enjoy activities like snowball fights and skiing.

Those glist'ning houses that seem to be built of snow Snow Oh, to see a mountain covered with a quilt of snow
The singer is describing the beauty of a snowy landscape and envisions a snow-covered mountain.

What is Christmas with no snow No white Christmas with no snow Snow
The artist believes that snow is an essential part of the Christmas experience.

I'll soon be there with snow I'll wash my hair with snow And with a spade of snow I'll build a man that's made of snow
The artist looks forward to playing in the snow and building a snowman.

I'd love to stay up with you but I recommend a little shuteye Go to sleep And dream Of snow
The artist suggests getting some rest and imagines snow-filled dreams.
