Snowman
Sia
Lyrics
Don't cry, snowman, not in front of me
Who'll catch your tears if you can't catch me, darling
If you can't catch me, darling
Don't cry, snowman, don't leave me this way
A puddle of water can't hold me close, baby
Can't hold me close, baby
Synopsis
In the lyrics, Sia begins by asking the snowman not to cry. For a snowman made of snow, crying will turn it
into melted snow. In the second stanza, she relates this idea to singing it so as not to be afraid of the sun. In
most part of songs, the sun represents life, hope and better days. She confesses that she will not leave the
snowman even if the seasons change. Snowman, in a practical sense, only last through the winter, which is
very temporary. So actually this song is addressed to her partner in real life. This song has a message that we
should face each day with happiness and a smile, not with tears or despair.
