From the recording Talk About The Weather
Lyrics
I went to sleep beneath the trees
For a hundred years and a thousand dreams
And when I woke the birds had flown away
And no one spoke and no one cared
No conversations and an empty thread
It’s all been said, there’s not much left to say
But the change in the weather is the new forever
When we get together
We don’t talk about the way we were
Now we’re not the same
We’re not the same
We just talk about the weather
Have you ever seen such rain?
So much rain
We made our song but the birds won’t sing
Composed in the key to everything
We had it cut but we locked ourselves away
And to “live and let die” has become our warcry
And we ask ourselves why
We don’t talk about the way we were
Now we’re not the same
We’re not the same
We just talk about the weather
Have you ever seen such rain?
So much rain
There isn’t any postcards (no more writing on the wall)
To send to all the folks back home (waiting waiting)
But you might make a phone call
On a grey Winter’s day
But we won’t talk about the way we were
Now we’re not the same
We’re not the same
We just talk about the weather
Have you ever seen such rain?
So much rain
