lyrics

Spring is here, the chill is gone
Things'll change, it won't be long
I've taken note all along
Of all the ways I've done you wrong

My future is bright, just like the sky
When summer heats up, so will I
And I'm not going to keep on standing by
When all I do is make you cry

I feel like I've worn out my welcome
Like a ten day heatwave

Stay for the season, I know you've got good reason
to call my stupid bluff and walk away
Stay for the season, I know you've got good reason
What can I do to make you stay?

Now autumn is here, the leaves are brown
I know damn well I've let you down
I'll be over on the other side of town
in case you ever want to see this clown

Now I feel bleak just like the clouds
This winter you don't want me around
You used to make me feel so proud
Now even when I whisper I feel loud

I know that I've worn out my welcome
Like snow from last week's storm

And if you ever see me, I might be too afraid see
To ask you once again to stay with me

Stay for the season, I know you've got good reason
to call my stupid bluff and walk away
Stay for the Season, I know you've got good reason
What can I do to make you stay?

Spring is here the chill is gone
Things'll change, it won't be long

River deep, mountain high. ... more
