This Time of Year

Winter has gone
Trees awake but they are still bare
Children making their way out
Mix laughter with new spring air

There’s something very lonely
Something’s just not right
Something very lonely
This time of year

Warmed by a drink from the sun
In its crisp sugary sky
Blue washed above us
Should bring the color back to our eyes

There’s something very lonely
Something’s just not right
Something very lonely
This time of year

As we sit and talk with our eyes locked fixed on the glare
The cloudy clock with its tick and tock reminds us we’re going nowhere

To answer your question
I know how you feel
But I don’t know just how to say it
It’s like a wound that just won’t heal

There’s something very lonely
Something’s just not right
Something very lonely
This time of year
