I've always watched you, hidden in the safety of the crowd
Looking at clothes across the window from where you once were
I didn't plan to buy a thing at that time--even so
I think the clothes you're wearing fit you perfectly

I'm so foolish, I have to say
Now is not the time for childish ways
Though I understand that you love my friend
I just can't help it--I'm falling for you...

It can't be helped, I don't care if you laugh at me
But this feeling is important....

*Pure snow, pure heart--memories
Of snow that fell upon the day we met long ago
Pain is part of life, so never be afraid
Love is part of life, it's the dream we made
My destiny lives inside of me

She said it was her pride that kept her smiling even though
It was a joke we played on her, thinking she'd never know
And now it's hard to be alone and with nowhere to go
This mask of friendship that I'm wearing bothers me

Why did it have to be your light,
Hanging over me, out of reach?
Tearing me apart, ripping up my heart
I'm lost whenever my thoughts drift to you....

When my sadness comes, when times are pressing down on me
I just look at your photograph....

Pure snow, pure heart--if only
I'd had more courage and more strength on that painful day
I was sure I'd have enough to get me through
Since I thought there was nothing I couldn't do
And yet why was I afraid to speak my heart?

Pure snow, pure heart--long ago
I don't regret the times I cried and I never will
I'll be brave for now and be strong but still
I am waiting now, and will wait until
The day when you'll understand my smile
