Snowflake
Daniel O'Donnell · I Need You / Don't Forget to Remember [2002]
(Snowflake) (snowflake) (snowflake)
Hey, hey, hey, snowflake (snowflake)
My pretty little snowflake (snowflake)
Oh, oh, oh, the change in the weather
Has made it better for you.
Hey, hey, hey, snowflake (snowflake)
My pretty little snowflake (snowflake)
You've got me warm as a fire
With the burning desire for you.
Snow was falling when love came calling
On this lonely heart of mine.
You were standing there with snow flaked in your hair
You kept stalling while my thoughts were calling
On everything I knew
For one excuse to get acquainted with you.
Then I said snowflake (snowflake)
My pretty little snowflake (snowflake)
Oh, oh, oh, the change in the weather
Has made it better for me.
Hey, hey, hey snowflake (snowflake)
My pretty little snowflake (snowflake)
You've got me warm as a fire
With the burning desire for you.
The ice was breaking and
Love was waking in a winter wonderland
When I felt you slip your fingers in my hand
Now snow is gleaming and
I'm not dreaming I know this is for real
The love I have is too much to conceal.
Hey, hey, hey, snowflake (snowflake)
My pretty little snowflake (snowflake)
Oh, oh, oh, the change in the weather
Has made it better for me.
Hey, hey, hey snowflake (snowflake)
My pretty little snowflake (snowflake)
You've got me warm as a fire
With the burning desire for you...
(Snowflake) (snowflake) (snowflake) (snowflake)
(Snowflake) (snowflake) (snowflake) (snowflake)
(Snowflake...)

Released during a period where he frequently collaborated with Mary Duff, the track captures the quiet melancholy characteristic of his early work, focusing on themes of impermanence and longing. The song's simple yet effective arrangement allows O'Donnell's storytelling to take center stage, resonating with listeners who appreciate straightforward, heartfelt country and folk music. As part of his broader discography from the early 2000s, "Snowflake" reflects a time when his catalog prioritized intimate, acoustic recordings over polished production, cementing his reputation as a dedicated singer-songwriter.
