paroles de chanson The Michigan Farm (Cradle Song, Op. 41/1) - Kurt Elling

Put away the colored lights
Set aside the tinsel trees
Step out into the night with me
Christmas Eve is there, wait and see
I'm away from the fireside
Feel the heat of the flames subside
Filter a sleep, deep under the snow
Softly above, the stars shiver and glow

Trees that with the winter flood
Spring through life but pay the cost
Slowly painfully leaves still rise
Reaching longing arms through the sky
Hear melodies no one can play
Earth whispers what no words can say
Christmas Carol's the winds blowed away
Sweet secretive lives
Dreaming of days
