February Robin
So we gotta wait for spring to March in...? Tell that to the sky
Looks like it stole some summer blue, some heat from between you and I
You and I...
With you, I like to lounge about the kitchen
lettin' breakfast drag its feet over 10 AM
We melted through what winter had to give us -
fingers got frost-bit in patience, but you end the aching
You make the songs come easy,
the sober okay;
you make a long shift bearable from miles away!
You make my steps all speedy,
my stress cool and breezy,
I can't stop singin', I can't stop singin':
I'm a February robin,
I carry the spring
in my red breast pocket,
nestled next to my melody.
Mm, the calendar can call this
winter if it wants, it's
paper nonsense -
since I been loving you, the days are thawin',
Amen!
..
With you, in and outside of my mouth is delicious;
we got cold-cut cantaloupe slipped in the kisses, and
kisses slipped into the sentences -
I ...forget to finish, but, you know what I meant! -
'cause now the songs come easy,
the sober is sweet
since we can wake up together after fallin' asleep
with the windchimes ringin',
the hanging ferns swingin'
I can't, can't, can't, can't,
can't stop singin' -
I'm a February robin,
I carry the spring
in my red breast pocket,
nestled next to my melody.
The calendar can call it
whatever it wants, it's
paper nonsense -
since I been loving you, the days are thawin',
Amen!
We'll be married
sure as robins
sing in February.
