Seek and Hide

Lucy Wainwright Roche

I fell in love last year
It's not a thing I do a lot
Pack up all my lonely habits
And give it all I got
And when the winter came
I thought I would be different but I'm not
I just the same old sorry kettle
Calling blackest pot
You gotta watch it all change
You gotta watch it all stay the same
I walk the morning shore
To see what pieces I can find
Glue them all together
Make a sailor's valentine
My house is empty now
I know I should feel sorry but I'm fine
I've got another losing lagging paper clock to wind
And watch it all change
And watch it all stay the same
This little city has the winter on its side
Took one last chance to seek and hide
It's hiding still
And if you make it back to visit you will see
I will be waiting patiently
You know I will
To watch it all change
And watch it all stay the same
Once upon any time
If you had asked me where I'd be
I would have said unlocking every door
With any key
Those dreams are funny now
And go ahead and laugh because they're free
Go to the kindest home that I can find
On Allen Street
And watch it all change
And watch it all change
And watch it all stay the same
I fell in love last year
It's not a thing I do a lot
