Winterling 02:26
Winterling, du musst singen Für dein Abendbrot Kahl und rau Nicht für lau Wann das Frühjahr sich erbot Winterling, sein Lied anfing Ende Februar Brechend voll Seine Knolle anschwoll Aus der Winterstarre Der Winterling im Vorfrühling Sein Leben vergänglich Unterschätzt, man liebt zuletzt Was so anfänglich ist Niemand‘s Liebling, der Winterling Das Gold von Grau im Frühjahr Das Gold von Grau so schön

March 4th 01:22
On the water I've been waiting On the water Anticipating March 4th Water's frozen Hear it cracking On the water I've been waiting March 4th On the water Here I'm standing But it's time to Start moving March 4th On the water Hear it cracking Now it's time to Start moving March 4th March!

April Tulips 03:29
April 5th It's too early to plan a picnic If you wish, with these 2 lips I will thee kiss instead April 6th It's much too soon to go swimming But if it's your thing, with these 2 lips I'll for thee sing instead Rains and it rains and it rains and it rains Your best laid plans to have a party Rains and it rains and it rains and it rains Yeah April's here, but spring is tardy April 7th There's no ice-cream at 11 degrees, you see But your 2 lips are sweet heaven to me April 8th It's much too late to ice-skate on a lake But if it breaks, with these 2 lips I'll thee resuscitate (Chorus) April 9th I'll kiss you where the sun don't shine-eth And on the 10th For your 2 lips, I'd for thee die-eth (Chorus)

Cumulus shapes may cloud the way Or sunlight break through billowed lace at dawn The wick exists without the flame a pale braid But no one's warmed by wick alone so sing along... The thunder's edge is a baby's sigh The earthquake's border is a flower bed One hand alone can't clap along so sing along... The rain doesn't discriminate Your steps ellipses... dot, dot, dot Walk along, walk along Your portable kisses unbridled Sing along, sing along Your lips must part to make a word Your feet must part to take a step forward But they'll reunite from time to time (Chorus)

Fare thee well my old man's bones For he has gone to sea He's gone so far, he's crossed the bar Ne'er return will he Won't linger in my old man's home For life occurs to me But one of these days, with goodness and grace Be once again with he Fare thee well my old man's bones For he has gone away He's gone before we closed the door And I here will not stay Now ash and bone are all that's left As a summary The bridges he burned, the peaks for which he yearned Of these he had many Fare thee well my old man's heart Your rhythm still beats in me Whose goodness I behold, whose wickedness I do loathe The battle still raging in me Fare thee well my old man's bones O where do I find thee? In heaven or hell? In the rolling of the swells? I'll never stop looking for thee. In heaven or hell, In the rolls of the swells, Be once again with he.

On the eve of a late, late May Once the light is in control And the night's but a sweet, black cherry It's no problem letting go When the rain has come and gone And the trunks are packed And the greens are uniform In the vernal slack Swallowed by the sight Replenished the well in me Likened to the night The sight of a black cherry Hips sway like a pendulum Your belly bare Appoggiatura Cherries Embellished pairs Night pressed to your lips You break with rain Sugar bleeds water Black cherries stain

Springtime won't last Everyone knows One of these years will be your last But when it's here Abandon that fear Praise it and cheer, it's now and here! Forget the time, but don't let the rime upon your hair The fruit of doubt is but a blossom in your ear Now you've got time Open your eyes Iridescent and surprised As a pearl plucked out of the oyster shell Forget the past, but not how to cast on wool to wear The fruit of doubt is now a blossom in your hair Now you've got time, It's springtime Forget the lines I sing but not their meaning The fruit of doubt grows thicker in the air And then it's time To go... (It's not like you can stop the march of time, oh no I hope you have some spring time awaiting you, I do) Springtime won't last Everyone knows Forget these words and Go, go, go

All beneath the moon will fade
The moon itself will move away
All that in this world that's bought
Now or then returns to nought
