lirik lagu greg brown - spring wind
i lived awhile without you,
darn near half my life.
i no longer see our unborn children,
born to you my unwed wife.
but yesterday i had a vision,
beneath the tree where we once talked,
of an old couple burning
their love letters so their children
won’t be shocked.
refrão:
love calls like the wild birds–
it’s another day.
a spring wind blew my list of
things to do… away.
my friends are gettin older,
so i guess i must be too.
without their loving kindness,
i don’t know what i’d do.
oh the wine bottle’s half empty–
the money’s all spent.
and we’re a cross between our parents
and hippies in a tent.
refrão
in a mucked up lovely river,
i cast my little fly.
i look at that river and smell it
and it makes me wanna cry.
oh to clean our dirty planet,
now there’s a n-ble wish,
and i’m puttin my shoulder to the wheel
’cause i wanna catch some fish.
refrão
children go to sleep now–
you know it’s gettin’ late.
i know you don’t like to miss nothin’
and school ain’t that great.
oh, i’ll dance with you when you’re happy,
and hold you when you’re sad,
and hope you know how glad i am,
just to be you’re dad.
refrão
darlin’ it’s been a hard go
but i think we’ll be okay.
i know i say that all the time
like everything else i say.
oh, i’ve been gone so often,
but every time i miss you,
and i don’t really know nothin’,
except i like to kiss you.
refrão
