Ralph McTell - Wait Until The Snow Lyrics

Ralph McTell Lyrics

"Wait Until The Snow"

How I'd like to run away
Oh, how I'd love to go
Then I think maybe I will stay
And just wait for the snow
To wipe the year from off the page
I'll pretend I did not know
But I remember all the words
And the memory, well it won't go
No, it won't go

How I'd like to up and fly
Almost anywhere
But I don't have the nerve to try
And you think that I'd never cared
So I'll wait until the snow has come
Yes, I think maybe I'll stay
For I really don't know where I'd run
And runnin', that's not my way
No, it ain't my way

How I'd like to run away
Oh, how I'd love to go
Then I think that maybe I will stay
And just wait for the snow
To wipe the year from off the page
And I'll pretend I did not know
But I remember all the words
And a memory, well it won't go
No, it won't go
