Falling
CH: Snow is falling, falling, falling to the ground
making me remember all those times
in the past; all those fun times we had
V1: First Year, innocents unaware
of what was to come, we had snowball fights
and skated on the lake roasting anything we could
over the fire in the common room.
V2: Second Year, not so innocent as before,
the chamber of secrets is on ev’rybody’s minds
Justin Finch-Fletchley and Nearly Headless Nick
both are in the infirmary, comatose.
CHORUS
V3: Third Year, we’re slowly getting older
Sneakin’ off to Hogsmeade to have a little fun
But it’s Sirius Black, and how did we not know?
My father’s best friend and murderer.
V4: Fourth Year, it’s time for the Yule Ball
Pretty Cho Chang is going with Cedric Diggory
But what about us? Why, we’re stuck with
the Patils. And Voldemort’s comin’ back.
CHORUS
V5: Fifth Year, we’re at 12 Grimmauld Place
Santa hats on mounted house elves’ heads
And it’s Sirius Black, he’s having a ball
‘Til it’s time to leave…please don’t be sad.
V6: Sixth Year, things have all changed
no time for snow and having any fun
only time to learn what we need to survive
Please, god, let the three of us survive this war.
CHORUS (x2)
