Another winter
The renters go home
The maple goes from crimson to brown
Oh God
My God
Another winter
In a summer town
The beach is empty
They cover the pools
The patio umbrellas come down
Oh God
My God
Another winter
In a summer town
One little leaf, a drift in the breeze
Refuses to fall from the sky
Blown by the wind, it clings to the trees
Unwilling to wither and die
The summer’s over
But I’m still a girl
Cavorting in my carnival crown
From blossom to blossom, I buzz like a bee
Then glance in the mirror, and who do I see?
A middle aged woman inhabiting me
Because it’s winter
In a summer town
Yesterday’s dreams are faded bouquets
Oh they abound
Roses that died on the vine
Just a memory divine
Yesterday seems
Of when…
More real that today
When sweet youth
It’s difficult drawing the line
Was mine
My season ended
Ended
A long time ago
But no one took the party tent down
All alone now
The pink paper lanterns still twinkle with grace
My young navy hero, his tender embrace
That sapphire blue ocean, oh how can I face
Another winter
In a summer town?
Oh God
Oh God
My God
