|
The things I used to like, I don't like any more, |
|
I want a lot of other things I've never had before, |
|
It's just like my mamma says, I sit around and mourn |
|
Pretending that I am so wonderful and knowing I'm adored |
|
I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm, |
|
I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string, |
|
I'd say that I had spring fever, |
|
But I know it isn't spring. |
|
I'm as starry eyed and gravely discontented, |
|
Like a nightingale without a song to sing. |
|
Oh, why should I have spring fever, |
|
When it isn't even spring? |
|
I keep wishing I were somewhere else, |
|
Walking down a strange new street, |
|
Hearing words I have never never heard, |
|
From a man I've yet to meet. |
|
I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams, |
|
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing, |
|
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud, |
|
Or a robin or a bluebird on the wing, |
|
But I feel so gay in a melancholy way, |
|
That it might as well be spring, |
|
It might as well be, might as well be, |
|
It might as well be spring. |
