3.of storm drains and ponds wip
ode for a pair of canadian geese
exploring the multiverses sound by sound and word by word
Story behind the song
story behind the song: yesterday saw a pair of canadian geese using a small puddle for a pond, (by a wetland so their real estate agent might have had them checking it out) which reminded me of a pair of injured geese i used to know. as per the circle of life one year there was just one, the next none. i had grown fond of them on my walks, this is something for me to remember them by. though the lyrics seem sad, i was trying to celebrate their life not their passing.
Lyrics
the flowers are growing, it's their time again
throwing new shoots and leaves and things
in a warm rain, like my tears now do
mine are still falling, like i fell for you
the trees are remembering how the sap can flow
another year, another growth ring unfolds
a slight mist, like the one i see you through
everytime i start daydreaming about you
last autumn found you crying
winter came in your last sleep
spring couldn't wake you, but kept trying
i was once more simply me
last autumn found me crying
winter came in your last sleep
spring couldn't wake you, but kept trying
once again i was just me
spring is sprung, the grass is green once more
birds and bees know what this time is for
it's slightly cloudy, like my dreams of you
my soul is yours to keep, if i can't be one with you
last autumn found you crying
winter came in your last sleep
spring couldn't wake you, but kept trying
i was once more simply me
this autumn found me crying
winter came in my last sleep
spring can't wake me, but keeps trying
once again we are a we
