Careful How You Go

On a midnight survey of the town

no place special, just around

the snow fell down like feathers from the sky

and all the good people were in their beds

with the reading lamps on overhead

and the curtains drawn against the night

quiet now

softly now

careful how you goHouse to house to garden gate

people waiting on buses that left too late

Too late now, they're wishing they were home

It gets slippery here, so watch your step

we don't want to break the spell just yet

the ice is thin, but maybe it will hold

quiet now

softly now

careful how you go

On a midnight survey of the town

no place special just around

the snow fell down like feathers from the sky
