Summer
It’s great being young, especially in summer
Your alarm can’t harm you when the sun already woke you
Those same rays still warm on your back when you rush home
Running right from the train, don’t stop ‘til you meet your darling
Those days when the pavement’s so warm
You see the clouds build and you smile at the coming storm
Holding hands and running through the rain
Oh, summer, promise you won’t ever leave again
Drinks taste better when you drink them outside
Sunrise looks brighter when you’ve been waiting for it all night
Hangovers break up and dissolve like mist
Put some music on before breakfast and do the twist
Last summer some of those days passed me by
Thought I was too busy to take my poor feet outside
This time round I know that’s a sin
I promise you won’t catch me doing something like that again
The grass gets greener every day
And the sun gets warmer too
So if you’ll sing along with me then I’ll sing along with you
After four...
One, Two, Three, Four
Yeah Yeah Yeah!
These glory days feel like they’re never gonna stop
If we keep on rising can we really never hit the top
Holding hands and running through the rain
Oh, summer, promise you won’t ever leave again

Autumn
Yesterday I was just getting started
The sun was soaring boldly through the air
Today coming home from work it’s all but fallen
I turn my back upon its final glare
What the hell did
I do with those bits
Of summer we had?
Consigned to the past
What promise now, from that which lies before us?
Laid out by cycles we can’t overrule
Our moods controlled by Newton’s laws of motion
The Earth dries out, retracts, and we do too
Those roses will die
Those swallows won’t fly
Leaves golden brown:
Small comfort now
Is it possible, in summer, to save up a buffer
Of bright times to ward off the dull?
If it is, I didn’t do it
If it is, well I wish I’d have done it
Days drag by now summer time has ended
Rows of losers queuing for the train
Didn’t we all look glorious in the sunshine?
And don’t we all look boring in the rain?
It’s gonna be
A long winter for me
What the hell did
I do with those bits
Of summer that we had

Winter
The day turns into night too soon as I head home to you
Unspoken sadness shrouds the house and lingers on in our front room
The snow outside deadens the sound of passing cars
Silence reigns, the worlds at an end, I sit and think for hours and hours
I sit and think for hours and hours
So the water freezes and it just stops
An awful shroud of white covers the cars and the shops
No motion, no progression when this damned temperature drops
Just sit and wait...for what?
I sit and think for hours and hours

Last Song
Well, what have I done?
Don’t these long nights have a moon and stars?
Well, what have I been doing?
Isn’t there music in this house of ours?
Can we blow away these clouds?
Take a lungfull and give ‘em hell
Is this a shroud of white?
Or just an enormous blank canvas?
This land is not a map
And this world is not an atlas!
Can we blow away these clouds?
Take a lungfull and give ‘em hell
Is there something in the air?
Makes you excited or makes you scared
Are you feeling totally unprepared?
I think I just felt something there
Is this Spring and do I care?
There is music in this house
Music of the walls and the halls and the lightbulbs and the doors and the chairs and the floors, yeah
We know because we made it
Yeah we know because we put it there, we made it for ourselves
Scattered little seeds are we
Separated on the breeze
Alone at the beginning alone at the end
But in the meantime how about it my friend?
A little cross-pollination, yeah yeah yeah
