Under the Snow and the Mask

Verse 1

Snow is falling outside my window
City’s quiet, dressed in white
I’m sitting here, holding a dream
Wishing you were here tonight

Every flake feels like a promise
Every light is calling me
I don’t know what waits behind the door
But my heart believes

Pre-Chorus

Then a letter slips through the silence
Like a whisper saying “go”

Chorus

Under the snow and under the mask
I was searching for your eyes
In a world of winter magic
And a thousand sweet disguises

One dance, one touch, one slow heartbeat
In the glow of candlelight
Under the snow and under the mask
I found you tonight

Verse 2

Silk and silver, borrowed courage
Laughing in the store with friends
Trying on a thousand versions
Of who I might be in the end

Carriage lights and castle shadows
Music floating through the air
Every step up those white stairs
Feels like a prayer

Chorus

Under the snow and under the mask
I was spinning in the night
Every move felt strangely familiar
Like your arms were holding mine

One dance, one truth, one quiet moment
When the world falls into place
Under the snow and under the mask
I saw your face

Bridge

Then you took my hand so gently
Like you’ve done a hundred times
In your eyes I knew the answer
Even before you were mine

Final Chorus

Under the snow, no more disguise
Just your heart next to mine
Santa’s laughter, gifts and wishes
Wrapped in love and candlelight

If this is what a miracle feels like
I’ll believe for all my life
Under the snow and under the mask
Our dream came alive

Outro

Snow keeps falling, soft and slow
And now I know…
I was never dancing alone
