Spring Into Winter
Where can I feel there is no fall like night?
Like last night was the last night of summer
And now there will be nothing
We will look for beauty in the death of the trees
In our withering old
In a troubled future soon to be reborn
Our streets will run red with the leaves who don't want to go
I don’t want to grow old in this skin
I feel like I sin when I watch television
Now that our season of greatness has ended and
Life is out of season, the trees committed treason
I would love to fall in love right now
But I don't know if my conscious would allow
Now that our season of greatness has ended and
Life is out of season, the trees committed treason
I would love to fall in love right now
But I don't know if my conscious would allow
Brian Wilson knew when he asked for an endless summer
Without leaves falling to the ground from planes in a blue sky
All our leaves they fall from planes
We burn all our leaves in an ocean of wind and extinguishing but
We will leave nothing behind but why did they have to?
We can always regrow the old wood
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I didn’t know what was allowed standing in my arms around you
(I don't feel I know my own face anymore)
I didn't know what was allowed standing with my arms around you
(I don't think I can trust my own face anymore)
Sleeping in this late city, waking under sun is setting
(I don't feel I know my own face anymore)
Walking in uncertain city, dancing on the roofs are burning
(I don't think I can trust my own face anymore)
Slipping into wet city, sleeping under trees are falling
(How will I look at myself in the mirror)
Breaking into locked city, stealing the last day of spring
(With a face like this? I don't know...)
Tripping on uncertainties, don't know if we should be kissing
(I will try to love you)
Mosquito bites and sweat dripping
(Even as I try to leave my skin behind)
Dancing cause my heart is standing still
Walking down this street dissembling arm in arm
This holy heart holding hand in hand is all I’m asking
Holding on your shoulder, holding onto oh I know
We’re unnerved if we do and unnerved if we don't
Fumbling with broken tongues, arm in arm
Who cares whether we do or don’t we go
With constant love and fierce trembling oh I know
Snake bite and angel wings that you and I are so
