Snowflakes and Lamplight

By Jeff Rolfzen & Rocky Steen-Rolfzen


I wanted snowflakes With the weather turning cold

I wanted no one to long for or to hold

I had ambitions I had big ideas and wishes

And in all of them I was alone

I wanted to be lonesome and blue

A table for one not a table for two

It was the Last thing that I wanted to do

l didn’t want to fall in love with you

I wanted lamplight with no hand in mine

I wanted no one to keep me on their mind

I was a dreamer, a big make-believer

And I thought that I was doing just fine

I was indifferent and I found the in the end

Longing to be alone, I could not pretend

Despite all my stalling

I found my heart was falling

And the snowflakes and lamplight shimmered no longer alone

I wanted to be lonesome and blue

A table for one not a table for two

It was the Last thing that I wanted to do

l didn’t want to fall in love with you

I didn’t want to fall in love with you

It was the Last thing that I wanted to do

l didn’t want to fall in love with you
