Spring Street |
| «I'm sorry that I left you |
| With your questions all alone |
| But I was too happy driving |
| And too angry to drive home |
| I was thinking about the easy courage |
| Of my distant friends |
| They said I could let this bridge wash out |
| And never make amends |
| Can I blow this small town |
| Make a big sound |
| Like the star of a film noir postcard |
| Can I just forget the frames I shared with you |
| And I can’t believe what they’re saying |
| They’re saying I can change my mind |
| Start over on Spring Street |
| I’m welcome anytime |
| Well there are Spring Street storefront daisies |
| Floating on their neon stems |
| There are new shirts on the clothes racks |
| Should I feel like one of them |
| I can find a small apartment |
| Where a struggling artist died |
| And pretend because I pay the rent |
| I know that pain inside |
| Yeah, let’s watch the tour bus stop and tell us |
| Here’s the scene of a spring green life dream |
| Take the best part |
| Write it in your caffeine diary |
| And I can’t believe what they’re saying |
| They’re saying I can leave tonight |
| Start over on Spring Street |
| I’m welcome anytime |
| This year April had a blizzard |
| Just to show she did not care |
| And the new dead leaves |
| They made the trees look like children with gray hair |
| But I’ll push myself up through the dirt |
| And shake my petals free |
| I’m resolved to being born |
| And so resigned to bravery |
| Yeah the one who leaves this also grieves this |
| Too much rain on a prairie flood plain |
| Houses floating, love is like that |
| We built on the river |
| And that’s to say, yeah I’m leaving |
| But I don’t have to go there |
| I don’t have to go to Spring Street |
| 'Cause it’s spring everywhere… " |
