He sits there crying teardrops
Because his only love has gone
CHORUS
The snowman's turned blue
'Cause he's not with you
This winter he's freezing to death
And the question that he asks
Is how long can he last
Before I breathe his very last breath
Pretty robins come around
Put thier prints in the snow
The snowman he is frozen
The robins are free to go
The snowflakes are falling
More weight upon his shoulder
The some more falls from the sky
Poor snowman, he's getting colder
The robin sits with him
All through the snows
Then comes the time of warming sun
Poor robin he's got to go
Next year he'll return again
Just to see his old friend
Did you ever see a robincry
(spoken)
Out there, and all around me
I see fields of white
Trees shining in the darkness
As their dressing reflects the moonlight
I see one tree standing tall and alone
It reminds me of me
In its bark I see a sad old face
That too, reminds me of me
There's a bed that lies empty
And I'm bewildered
Because her love is gone
CHORUS
The snowman's turned blue
'Cause he's not with you
This winter he's freezing to death
And the question that he asks
Is how long can he last
Before I breathe his very last breath
The robin, my only friend
He's been a few times before
But he is slowly growing old
Soon he won't call no more
Deserted and lonely
Still snowflakes are falling
Up in the dark blue sky
Can the stars hear me calling
Somewhere among the stars
I see my robin friend
I hear him sing he's sorry
That he cannot come again
I've lost my only friend
My robin nests in the sky
I wonder how long before I join him
Because I know I can't get by
CHORUS
The snowman's turned blue
'Cause he's not with you
This winter he's freezing to death
And the question that he asks
Is how long can he last
Before I breathe his very last breath
Before I breathe....
His very.....
Last breath......
