April has rolled around, and spring is some sick joke
like it is every year, when you live here.
I'll shovel snow for the hundredth fucking time this year.
And I might cry.
Lord I might cry.
Someone told me even when a woman breaks my heart,
well I still got my satisfaction.
You should just be happy that it happened here at all.
Well I still got my satisfaction.
Sometimes you just have to find all the sunny sides of life.
I take a glimpse.
Every time I turn around you're there,
standing next to me.
Every time I turn around you're there,
getting close to me.
Every time I look.
Someone told me all our hearts are warmest in the spring,
so I still got my satisfaction.
Even though the snow won't go, and breaths can still be seen,
well I still got my satisfaction.
Sometimes you just have to find all the sunny sides of life.
I take a glimpse.
Every time I turn around you're there,
standing next to me.
Every time I turn around you're there,
getting close to me.
Every time I look.

Coffee, Fair Trade

There's a book,
There's a page.
There's Coffee, fair trade.
There's a chair by a window.
You can sit, watch the people.
I don't feel that pressure presses pressing things,
My plate if I don't buy a sandwich.
Build a boat, or a raft an oar,
With all that time that you still can't afford.
The river is high,
Today's the day.
Float away on a stick and a board.
There's an amp in my kitchen,
With a speaker,
It's ten inches.
There's a switch you can toggle,
And a knob.
Only one though.
I don't feel that pressure presses pressing things,
My head if I can't hear the noise.
Build a boat, or a raft an oar,
With all that time that you still can't afford.
The river is high,
Today's the day.
Float away on a stick and a board.
The river is high,
Today's the day.
Float away on a stick and a board.

The Hours

Please, let me stand here in your glow,
And while away the hours.
I'd hate to see you go
So far away that I can't reach you now.
When the cherry blossoms grow
I'd hope to find you, safe and sound at home
On the riverbank below.
It's sad, but you and I know better.
Make it last this time.
Please, let me write to you Spring.
And sing to you in Fall.
When Winter's shadow looms,
I need to feel your warmth like
Summer time;
Isn't always on our side.
And when it is, it tends to up and fly
Far away into the breeze.
Too far from me to love you better.
Make it last this time.

Cabin Fever

Awful lonely lately..
Careful combing of my house to find a muse.
The ghosts are moving
All my furniture around.
Just try to ask nicely
Next time.
Shut away indoors.
I don't go out..
Creaking on my floors.
No, I don't go out
When it's cold out,
Unless my boots will leave a trail back to my home.
The ghosts are angry..
Their banging on my doors and writing notes.
I'm losing sleep again,
But I don't really mind.
Just try to ask nicely
Next time.
Shut away indoors.
I don't go out..
Creaking on my floors.
No, I don't go out
When it's cold out,
Unless my boots will leave a trail back to my home.
