I came down from Thessalon Toronto's not my home I miss the north country so much No longer will I roam Driftin' snow around my window Driftin' snow around my door Driftin' snow around my brains Lord Won't be no driftin' anymore Well I'm sitting here waiting for the winter to die Well sometimes I hope I never make it through And the things that I believe aren't about to fight With the things that I know inside are true All the friends that I have had Or misplaced along the way No amount of energy could ever bring them back It weighs down on me like a ton It never was no fun But I never meant to do no harm Driftin' snow around my window. Well I'm running as silent as a sleeping train Hey moon, hey moon won't you shine down on me I need your light to give me direction The farther off I get the better off I'll be All the times that I have spent Or misplaced along the way No amount of energy could ever bring it back It weighs down on me like a ton It never was no fun But I never meant to do no harm Driftin' snow around my window.
