Blood Oranges In The Snow Lyrics
Just a little while longer
Before we know
We'll be eating blood oranges
In the snowThe border crossing
Was moving slow
With all this weather
It's been touch and goBut we keep driving
We're not afraid
The snow in our headlights
Confetti in a paradeAnd we've got maybe
Oh, a 100 more miles
I'm gonna hold Grace's baby
They say she's all smilesJust a little while longer
Before we know
We'll be eating blood oranges
In the snowDaddy's gonna play Red Wing
Like it's the only song he knows
Mama's washin' dishes
Singin' soft and lowShe'll ask me to play
From the gospel hymnal
Try to find an old song
She don't knowWho Made The Lilies?
On The Jericho Road
Let The Lower Lights Be Burning
Be Still My SoulJust a little while longer
Before we know
We'll be eating blood oranges
In the snowAnd he will gather us
All of us kids
And read pioneer stories
Of the great north woodsAnd the silent panther
Patient in the trees
With the pioneer children
Walkin' home beneathJust a little while longer
Before we know
