Blood Oranges In The Snow - Over the Rhine

Just a little while longer

Before we know

We’ll be eating blood oranges

In the snow

The border crossing

Was moving slow

With all this weather

It’s been touch and go

But we keep driving

We’re not afraid

The snow in our headlights

Confetti in a parade

And we’ve got maybe

Oh, a 100 more miles

I’m gonna hold Grace’s baby

They say she’s all smiles

Just a little while longer

Before we know

We’ll be eating blood oranges

In the snow

Daddy’s gonna play Red Wing

Like it’s the only song he knows

Mama’s washin' dishes

Singin' soft and low

She’ll ask me to play

From the gospel hymnal

Try to find an old song

She don’t know

Who Made The Lilies?

On The Jericho Road

Let The Lower Lights Be Burning

Be Still My Soul

Just a little while longer

Before we know

We’ll be eating blood oranges

In the snow

And he will gather us

All of us kids

And read pioneer stories

Of the great north woods

And the silent panther

Patient in the trees

With the pioneer children

Walkin' home beneath

Just a little while longer

(Before we know)
