Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Woke up to a world gone quiet White on every crooked fence Kids are drawing names in windows Fogged up by their own breath Main Street looks like something painted Dusty wreaths all glowing now Footprints leading from the houses All the neighbors spilling out [Chorus] First snow in our town Brings everybody out Coffee cups and woolen sleeves Red cheeks Laughing in the street First snow in our town Nothing feels alone right now We’re all standing in the same soft light Watching the sky come down [Verse 2] Old man Carter sweeps his front steps Then just lets the broom lean in Catches snowflakes on his sweater Starts to smile like he’s a kid Someone strings up lights by hand Ladder shaking Friends below Pass the bulbs up Pass a story Time moves slower with the snow [Chorus] First snow in our town Brings everybody out Coffee cups and woolen sleeves Red cheeks Laughing in the street First snow in our town Nothing feels alone right now We’re all standing in the same soft light Watching the sky come down [Bridge] Sidewalk angels Mittened fingers Calling out each other’s names (hey!) Sharing scarves and sharing shivers Sharing more than just the day Every heart a little warmer Every voice a little loud Underneath this drifting blanket We’re one tiny Shining crowd [Chorus] First snow in our town Brings everybody out Stories that we thought we knew Feel brand new in this white view First snow in our town Nothing feels alone right now We’re all standing in the same soft light Watching the sky come down Watching the sky come down (oh-oh) On our little Gathered town

Warm acoustic folk-pop, male vocals. Gently picked guitar and soft piano build into a cozy, swaying groove with brushed drums and upright bass. Verses stay intimate and close-mic’d; chorus lifts with group harmonies, glockenspiel sparkle, and a subtle organ pad. Final chorus adds layered “ooh”s, tambourine, and a roomy, singalong feel.
