The Banister Bough Songtext
von Chilly Gonzales

The Banister Bough Songtext

We came to make this house a home with pure and good intent
The lilacs and the butterflies showed us what home meant
They did the work that beauty does ′til leaves shook to the ground
And rain like candy cane made snow to turn the season 'round
The people from the times before me went out to the woods
With an axe upon their shoulder, dreaming bigger, something good
But Christmas can bе made new as footprints on the ground
So whеn the snow is tall as me, I′ll make a banister bough

Ask the cedar
Ask the fir
Ask the pine
And ask the birds to come inside


Then we'll ask the holly
Ask the snow
Ask the deer
And the mistletoe to look alive

The snow has made the night so quiet
Let's make the fire crack
And stir up something warm to drink feet up and lean on back
I′ll lay the branches on the floor, arranged from big to small
I′ll grab some string, or better yet some ribbon or some yarn
Then we'll loop it around the spindles and rails
This first banister bough, it′s all it entails

So let's open the boxes, the baubles and bells
The tinsel′s as bright as snow when it falls
The lights we untangled are tangled again
The presents we've given, the presents you′ve sent
Are waiting under the banister bough
