February - written in spring 2009 on a 5-string kids guitar
lyrics
i thought time would stay with me
but time got free
please dont take me for a fool
everybody knows time worked his magic on you
he turned your eyes from stars to stones
your lips to bones
he forced your laughs and smiles to frowns
lord i miss that sound
livin in the lost and found
weight of the water folds our bodies
and we all fall down
(fall down dead)
like a crown round my head
like a crown round my head
just like slippin in an empty bed
dont tell me the seas still red
sometimes you win sometimes you wont
just my rotten luck arms heavy and the snows still cold
but i like a river accept
the rain that comes in the spring
i wait for the providence i'm sure
sure the lord will bring
