Lyrics

The Snowman Of Rotterdam
Karine Ste-Marie/Gabriel Ethier/Sylvain Michel

He’s got the body of a greek god
With the heart of a snowman
No this guy never opens up
He never lets anyone in

So afraid of melting in the light
He only comes to play at night
No promises, no empty lies
Staring through deep heartbroken eyes

Tell me little baby why are you so sad?
You’ve got a hundred girls there at your feet
Tell me, tell me little baby why’d d’you act you so bad?
See what you could be

Yet the snowman keeps me safe and warm at night
No, no I never sleep alone, he holds me tight
Yet the snowman keeps me safe and warm at night
Though we both know two wrongs won’t ever make it right

Oh how I love to see him smile
He’s got the innocence of a child
But he’s been played with, he’s been bruised
He pulls the strings now not to lose

A dreamless sleep, an empty life
Add up the bottles, get the girls in line
Stand alone, snowman, fight your fight
Soon you’ll face the light

Yet the snowman keeps me safe and warm at night
No I never sleep alone, he holds me tight
Yet the snowman keeps me safe and warm at night
Though we both know two wrongs won’t ever make it right

One day the snowman will have to melt
One day you’ll have to find yourself
You’ll have to mend all of your sorrows
There’s a good man trapped under the snow

Yet the snowman keeps me safe and warm at night
No I never sleep alone, he holds me tight
Yet the snowman keeps me safe and warm at night
Though we both know two wrongs won’t ever make it right
