Lyrics
NOT YET SPRING E. B. Fay Copyright 2006
The fields are bleak and brown and barren,
Where the wind has scoured all life away,
The Banshee screams its lonely sorrow,
There?s no Spring in the air today.
The seasons? change is nigh upon us,
But it sure is bringing to us nothing warm,
Gotta break the back of this polar vortex,
What we need is big, old East Coast storm.
(Turn-around to chorus)
CHORUS:
A bitter breeze blows `cross the frozen tundra,
An icy finger freezes where my heart used to be,
If I could find a way to keep from goin? under,
It sure would help to take this chill away from me?.
(To a turn-around to a verse for the break)
(to chorus # 2)
CHORUS:
Let?s hope the warmth?s not too far in the gloaming,
But perhaps the spirits know what a killer that would be,
When the Summer?s here I might just do some roaming,
But until the time that happens, I?m just lovin?, livin? free?.
The fields are brown and bleak and barren
But I know it?s not always gonna be that way.
The banshee screams its? lonely sorrow?..
