lyrics
I fell asleep in a snow bank
that night you pulled me out alive.
Do you remember that fateful New Year’s Eve,
It was the first time that we kissed, if you believe
it anymore, I just don’t know…
"Yes I do remember, but I had kissed before,
You were attractive to me then, but no longer anymore
Oh, please don’t go…"
No, I understand, you see me as a friend,
Although I saw a little more,
than I should have in the end, and now we’re…
"…Forgetting all about that, many years have passed,
You’ve kissed many girls since then; I’ve got a boyfriend that’ll last, I think…"
I fell asleep in a snow bank.
That night you pulled me out alive.
We’re better off this way, letting the past remain the past
Besides, you’re not the one for me;
you’ve got such a dark side, you know…
"You yourself have many flaws, your not quite so pristine,
You were so unconfident with the lights out, so you ran away from me, oh"
I fell asleep in a snow bank
That night you pulled me out alive.
I fell asleep in a snow bank
That night alone I could have died.
That night alone...
that night you pulled me out alive.
Do you remember that fateful New Year’s Eve,
It was the first time that we kissed, if you believe
it anymore, I just don’t know…
"Yes I do remember, but I had kissed before,
You were attractive to me then, but no longer anymore
Oh, please don’t go…"
No, I understand, you see me as a friend,
Although I saw a little more,
than I should have in the end, and now we’re…
"…Forgetting all about that, many years have passed,
You’ve kissed many girls since then; I’ve got a boyfriend that’ll last, I think…"
I fell asleep in a snow bank.
That night you pulled me out alive.
We’re better off this way, letting the past remain the past
Besides, you’re not the one for me;
you’ve got such a dark side, you know…
"You yourself have many flaws, your not quite so pristine,
You were so unconfident with the lights out, so you ran away from me, oh"
I fell asleep in a snow bank
That night you pulled me out alive.
I fell asleep in a snow bank
That night alone I could have died.
That night alone...

Doug Hoyer recommends:
-
Alec Harryhausen writes very sharp songs for Dream Version (and he also plays a bit on 'Getting Older'). Check out the song 'Backdrop Painters'
go to album -
My pal Pete writes great family music about all kinds of wonders found in nature. For the young, old, and in between.
go to album -
Do you like GUITAR!?! If so, you will probably dig this great record. 1/3 abstract patchwork, 1/3 solid songwriting, 1/3 a sick band doing what they do
