Snowman

I was playing in the snow today
somehow I didn't mind the cold
and for a minute thought you'd melt away
and then I started feeling old
a bright sunday afternoon
chasing our cares away
the sun is beating down
and the snow is melting away
we made a snowman then we built a fort
so we could hide out from the world
we drank martinis in our thermoses
and talked until the sun went down
another winter's day's got me feeling kind of gray
I look at you and then I look away
maybe winter's not as bad as they say
spring has come and now the snow is gone
and though the flowers look real fine
the only thing I can think about
is snow reflecting in your eyes
