Snow Camping Lyrics - Laura Veirs

I saw the violet turn to night 

I saw the water turn to ice 

A thousand snowflakes hovered 'round me 

The world aglow 

I heard a distant songbird singing 

A song the words i used to know 

And as the melody went ringing 

I felt my bones on the rocks below 

The weighted trees of my only home

With brother sleeping right beside me 

The blankets pulled up to his chin 

The makeshift snow cave settled slightly 

But held us in and sheltered us 

Like mom and dad, they always helped us
