lyrics

First snow of the year / never thought I’d find you here
Storm clouds in my mind lighten all the time

Come from California / Where the breezes warm you
All that sage and tarmac- say you might go back

Bag of bulbs on my front porch
The earth is cold
But warm enough to sow
Come the spring, there’ll be colours all around
If I get em in the ground

Have you seen the papers? / the good news makes folks nervous
Have you seen the lovers?- carving up their hearts
Mostly saying “please” / mostly meaning “thankyou”
I believe your laughter is a place to start

Bag of bulbs covered in snow
The earth is cold
But tender to snow
Come the spring, they’ll be colours from the ground
And I hope you come round

Conversations play all the time
When I’m alone, you’re on my mind
Illuminations of spaces between
The will to love and peace of being

First snow of the year / never thought I’d find you here
Warming my heart so
like this fire burning low.
