Life Seasons
Life happens like the cycles of seasons
And things happen in it for many different reasons
When you are young its summer and you have lots of fun
But summers turns to fall and its all done
For the summer was your youth were you learned and played away your days
But you grow older in the fall, and like the leaves, play decayed
The leaves of your life soon change color and fall
More responsibilities, less fun and your getting kinda tall
This season of your life, winter must be the worst
You’ve been dumped, fired, and evicted. You feel mighty cursed
The snow of misfortune falls heavy like a million blizzards
And you meet only bad people with blood cold as a lizards
The nights get longer and your days shorter in your life
You’ve gone through alot of hardships and strife
Its gets a little warmer as spring shows some light
You soon know that goodtimes are on the way and you have a reason to fight
Slowly buy surely the snow and ice melt
And the warmth seems to fade away the pain and hurt you felt
Spring is now here, the brunch between winter and summer
Fresh new growth in life, a new song, a new band, with a hell of a drummer
Melting ice gets brushed aside to make room for your feet
And sometimes your butt as you sit in the street
The days are now longer, the street lights get a break
More cookouts fill the yards, bring on the steaks
Reported cases of cabin fever sharply decline the closer summer comes
And the party goers dance wildly to the beat of solar drums
That cold winter alone is only remembered as a bad dream
That you’ve awoken from long ago as you feel your heart beam
Love holds your hand once again and leads you down the road of happiness
You promise not to lose your grasp this time even through a snapped wrist
So you buy a ring for the finger of your fling
And by the time you get the courage to ask, summer’s last song is about to sing
You pop the question on the first day of fall, it must have been a sign
Cause as you got down on one knee, like the seasons, she changed her mind
You feel a chilly breeze as she declines your request
And your heart catches up with your body and you feel a chill in your chest
The seasons again have gone full circle pulling your life in tow
And you slip back into your seasonal depression, around and around you go
