lyrics
Cold will cease at Winter’s end
And springtime now will come.
Spots are in my eyes from
staring at the Sun.
The trees come back to life
and flowers bloom all around.
But as the flowers bloom, my bags are packed.
The world is upside down,
It’s 66 and sunny outside,
and Rainman’s fast asleep.
The perfect kind of springtime day,
the kind I'd like to keep,
when I go away.
The past slips through my fingers,
where, oh where’s it gone?
I guess I’ll say goodbye,
I must be movin’ on.
The future is a foggy road,
two steps; I might get lost.
The flowers bloom but I can’t see, I’m worried about the cost.
I could have reconsidered,
but that time is now long past.
There’s none to blame it’s just a shame,
these days weren’t meant to last. Cause’
It’s 66 and sunny outside,
and Rainman’s fast asleep.
The perfect kind of springtime day,
The kind I'd like to keep,
When I go away.
The trees come back to life
and flowers bloom all around.
But as the flowers bloom, my bags are packed.
The world is upside down,
Time moves too fast when it should be slow,
and too slow when it should be fast.
There’s none to blame it’s just a shame
These days weren’t meant to last.
Cause’ it’s 66 and sunny outside,
and Rainman’s fast asleep.
The perfect kind of springtime day,
whose memory I’ll keep,
when I go away.
