lyrics

well it's getting warmer on this hemisphere again
but i still feel the same way that i did back then
you're still gone
i'm still singing the same songs
lonesome and lowdown at the bottom of the hill
getting lower still

so far past the bottom i can almost reach the top
words they say talk (talk talk toxic turtle doves)
stutter and drop

the sun's been staying up too late
i think it's got on its brights
and i see something dark gathering
in all this light

and i know new things will grow
i'd like to push every flower back into the ground
who even told the spring it could show its face in this town

it's springtime in this winterlude
but i'm an autumn kinda dude
still i'd give the wettest kiss to all the flowers and the blue sky
if you'd come back with them
