The Snowman
On a Christmas Eve a happy snowmanStood and dreamed beside a cottage doorHow the children loved their friend the snowmanAnd the funny fedora he woreWhen they said goodnight they told the snowmanThat a gift for him was on the treeSo he called himself a lucky snowmanJust like one of the family was heThe cottage porch looked beautiful and brightThe holly wreath was turned on for the nightWhen all at once it caught on fire and fellHe couldn't knock, he couldn't ring the bellHe couldn't run for help, he couldn't callBut then he had to save the children after allHe knew he'd melt away, and yet the snowmanThrew himself across the burning floorHow the children missed their friend the snowmanBut they'll always remember him forA heart that was brave and the joy that he gaveAnd the funny fedora he wore Aus Songtexte Mania
