"'01: Have You Seen It In The Snow?" lyrics

"'01: Have You Seen It In The Snow?"

They say this city is dirty and gray
But I think it's pretty on a summer day
And on rainy nights
When the streets smudge the lights
It's beautiful, you know

But have you seen it in the snow?
When every light has a halo
When it snows all night
And the world glows white
In the morning light, oh
Have you seen it in the snow?

They'll tell you this town is an ugly thing
It's all falling down and rebuilding
Neither stars nor sun
And I've never seen one rainbow
For rainbows go to Idaho

But have you seen it in the snow?
When every light has a halo
When it snows all night
And the world glows white
In the morning light, oh
Have you seen it in the snow?
