Songs About / On: SPRING

Zuhaus' bei dir steht ein riesiges Paket
ich lehn' so an der Tür und seh' den Staub
wie er durchs Zimmer schwebt
du hast in aller Eile nicht mal die Bilder abgehängt read more »

Why is my heart dancing? imagine dancing!
You look at me, and suddenly it’s spring.
Why do I keep sighing? not sad, just sighing,
I’m young and free, and suddenly it’s spring.
High on a hilltop, love is calling, read more »

by Nanci Griffith, James Hooker, Danny Flowers
Gulf coast highway, he worked the rails
He worked the rice fields with their cold dark wells
He worked the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico
The only thing we've owned is this old house here by the road read more »

Héloïse
In the spring of 1117
My heart is yearning to sing
For in the convent of 1116
I never knew such a spring
With him I will fly like a song-bird
With him I will try canticles not yet heard read more »

Standing in a pile of shit
I come out smelling like a rose
Touch'n luck right on the nose
And everybody knows read more »

Strange face, with your eyes
( written by nick drake )
So pale and sincere

Underneath you know well
Strange face, with your eyes
You have nothing to fear
So pale and sincere
For the dreams that come to you when so young
Underneath you know well
Told of a life
You have nothing to fear
Where spring is sprung
For the dreams that come to you when so young read more »

You broke the bread
We drank the wine
Your lip was bleedin’ but it was fine
Come on inside, babe, across the line
I love you more than i
But then this bird just flew away
She was never meant to stay
Oh to keep her caged would just delay the spring
You broke your word
Now that’s a lie
We had a deal that you would try
Come on inside, girl, I think it’s time
High time we drew the line
But then this bird just flew away
While I looked the other way
Oh to keep her caged would just dela read more »

Hoagy carmichael

I get along without you very well
Of course, I do
Except when soft rains fall
And drip from leaves
Then I recall
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms
Of course, I do
But I get along without you very well read more »

The loneliest sound, that ever I heard,
Warn't no freight train, warn't no night-singing bird;
But the sound of bed-springs, creakin' with love and life;
Just a hurtful reminder how love has passed me by.
Young folks next door, you know the walls are thin;
When they ain't fighting what they doing again;
Its the sound of bed-springs, creakin' with love and life;
Just a hurtful reminder how love has passed me by. read more »

If I had time to kill the world I'd try
oh no, but I'm busy, killing me
I don't have time to build a suicide
because the snowman melts in spring
the striper girls will not be coming back
in the summer, for me, me
I don't have time to even say good bye
we are dying, as winter lives, spring!
snow melts on my lawn and i am free, yeah!
corn cob pipe and a button nose, yeah!
bottled in the ground too long a...
snow melts on my lawn and i am...
if i had time to kill the world i'd try
