| IT MIGHT AS WELL BE SPRING | ||||||||||
| The things I used to like I don't like anymore I want a lot of other things I've never had before It's just like my mama says I sit around and mope Pretending that I'm so wonderful And knowing I'm adored I'm as restless As a willow in a windstorm I'm as jumpy As a puppet on a string I'd say that I had spring fever Buy I know it isn't spring I'm as starry eyed And gravely discontented Like a nightingale Without a song to sing Oh why should I have spring fever When it isn't even spring I keep wishing I was somewhere else Walking down A strange new street Hearing words That I have never never heard From a man I've yet to meet I'm as busy As a spider spinning daydreams I'm as giddy As a baby on a swing I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing But I feel so gay In a melancholy way That it might as well be spring It might as well be It might as well be It might as well be spring |
