Snow man

This is a lovely, if downbeat tune. Nice lyrics to this one as well. Any love?

yeah, it's really great. maybe the only worthwhile moment Nona's got out of all the Prince work we've heard her on.

I hadn't heard it in years and initially thought it was Mayte. Not that Nona's voice is particually great mind. Production is abit sparse (for Prince). I wonder if he ever bothered finishing it?

"Christmas in Belgium was different
Than the ones spent in L.A.
The Christmas I got no presents
Still me and my brother played
Near the ocean makin' the snow man
On his face we were makin' a smile
Cuz just like a daddy
The snow man had style

CHORUS:
Snow man, snow man
Another Christmas gone
I got a chess game this time
A bishop takes the pawn
Sometimes I wanna go back where
The ocean swallows the shore
I could still see him smiling
When my snow man is no more, no more

Winter seldom passing
Where the memory doesn't sway
2 the smell of a Christmas dinner
Shared the family way (Shared in the family way)
Everything seems so perfect
That nothing would dare go wrong
But tears come with the summer
So long, so long (So long)

CHORUS

Snow man

I look at my hands and I wonder
Will they ever make anyone smile
The way the snow man made me

CHORUS

(Snow man) {repeat till end}"
