These are our stars falling on our heads Piling up in snowdrifts to make us think again Somewhere in the winter we lost sight of heaven So the sky came down to give us something to believe in Oh, take it slow Remember who you were before the wind began to blow And maybe it takes a small apocalypse to slow us down And really learn what wonder is And don't you want to live in a world like this Where every breaking day is a genesis? Oh, take it slow Remember who you were one hundred years ago 'Cause the promise of the snow is purity bestowed and The value of a soul beyond all you'll ever know So there's nowhere you can go So you might as well go slow And remember who you were Before the wind began to blow (*) And the promise of the snow is purity bestowed and The value of a soul beyond all you'll ever know And there's nowhere you can go So you might as well go slow And remember who you were Before the wind began to blow These ore our stars falling on our heads And all our wildest dreams coming back up from the dead We are but dust, but we're dust with breath And someone sends the snow to make us remember this *There's an alternate vocal line whose words are tough to transcribe
