(Verse 1)

The town is sleeping, not a single light on,

This heavy silence says all we're not saying.

We're walkin' side by side, but we're walking alone,

And the words that matter most, we're too scared to own.

(Pre-Chorus)

And it feels like a secret's an easy thing to keep,

But this chain I'm dragging's wakin' the whole town from its sleep...

(Chorus)

Oh, that white, white snow,

Sees everywhere we go.

It's readin' our minds, the truth it always knows,

By the footprints that we leave below.

(Verse 2)

You had a quiet "I'm sorry" held tight in your chest,

I had a desperate "Don't go," but you know the rest.

Yeah, it was easier to turn and just walk away,

Than to feel this cold, hard hurt settle in and stay.

(Pre-Chorus)

And it feels like the darkness will never tell a soul,

But this quiet's screamin' now, and it's takin' its toll...

(Chorus)

Oh, that white, white snow,

Sees everywhere we go.

It's readin' our minds, the truth it always knows,

By the footprints that we leave below.

(Bridge)

Yeah, the new snow's covered every track,

Every angry word, there ain't no turnin' back.

But it remembers, Lord, it remembers it all,

The way you walked away, and my world got so small.

(Final Chorus)

Oh, that white, white snow...

Yeah, it sees everywhere we go...

You read our minds, the truth you always know,

By the footprints that we leave below.
