| The sun is warm and shining soft up in a pale blue sky The clouds like wisps of cotton floating by The grass has grown up rich and green once more Bright flowers bloom in colors never seen before Spring has come again and the world seems as it should I'm alive and I'm in love and everything is good The sun is hot and heats the air into bright sizzling waves The bees buzz lazy where the happy children play The trees are full of rich green leaves above the high-grown grass The blooms breath out sweet fragrances each time that we walk past Summer has come again and the world seems as it should I'm alive and I'm in love and everything is good The breeze is cool and blows the leaves that now have turned to brown The trees are dressed in crimson waves that flutter to the ground The air is crisp and charged with life like fire from a match The children laugh and play their games among the pumpkin patch Autumn has come again and the world seems as it should I'm alive and I'm in love and everything is good The world is cold and quiet underneath the snow so white Lovers find sweet warmth beside the fire inside tonight Snowflakes fall in frosty waves outside the window pane The moon shines bright above the silence covering the land Winter has come again and the world seems as it should I'm alive and I'm in love and everything is good The rain falls down in torrents on the sad and dreary world The thunder crashes loudly while the lightning bolts are hurled The wind blows harsh and moves the world til nothing seems the same Unending days, relentless tears have to the world to gray Spring has come once more and everything is wrong I'm in love but he is gone and I'm left all alone The sun beats down its blistering heat upon a tired land The people sweat beneath their toiling loads upon the sand The grass has given up its green for dying shades of brown The world retreats and in the heat no happiness is found Summer has come once more and everything is wrong He loved me once but then he stopped and I have turned to stone The wind is cold against a sky of sickening blood red The trees have given up their joy and now they all are dead The world is dying all around and doesn't even try You can't defeat the ever moving hands of time Autumn has come once more and everything is wrong He left me and without him I don't know how to go on Cold and gray on frozen streets turned to deadly ice Ice like hearts without feeling, ice like hearts like mine Lonely nights under the moon and her saddened glow Lonely days spent gazing out onto the dirty snow Winter has come once more and everything is wrong I'm in love but he is gone and I'm left all alone Heather Dawn Morrison |
