Spring Street lyrics
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, Saying I could let this bridge was hout and
never make amends, Can I blow this small town, make a big sound, Like the
start 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 am welcome anytime. 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 scent 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 caan leave tonight, Start over on
Sprin g Street, I am 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 that one wwho leaves this also grieves this, Too much rain on
a prairie flood plain, Houses floating, love is like that, we built on the
river, yeah, 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
