Snowman Lyrics by Sia
Don’t cry, snowman, not in front of me
Who’ll catch your tears if you can’t catch me, darling?
If you can’t catch me, darling
Don’t cry, snowman, don’t leave me this way
A puddle of water can’t hold me close, baby
Can’t hold me close, baby
I want you to know that I’m never leaving
‘Cause I’m Mrs. Snow. ‘Til death we’ll be freezing
Yeah, you are my home, my home for all seasons
So, come on, let’s go
Let’s go below zero
And hide from the sun
I’ll love you forever
Where we’ll have some fun
Yes, let’s hit the North Pole
And live happily
Please, don’t cry no tears now
It’s Christmas, baby
My snowman and me, yeah
My snowman and me
Baby
Don’t cry, snowman, don’t you fear the sun
Who’ll carry me without legs to run, honey?
Without legs to run, honey
Don’t cry, snowman, don’t you shed a tear
Who’ll hear my secrets if you don’t have ears, baby?
If you don’t have ears, baby
I want you to know that I’m never leaving
‘Cause I’m Mrs. Snow. ‘Til death we’ll be freezing
Yeah, you are my home, my home for all seasons
So, come on, let’s go
Let’s go below zero
And hide from the sun
I’ll love you forever
Where we’ll have some fun
Yes, let’s hit the North Pole
And live happily
Please, don’t cry no tears now
It’s Christmas, baby
My snowman and me, yeah
My snowman and me
Baby
