about

Recorded in Potsdam

lyrics

We searched every room in the house
Turned the whole place upside down
Looking for words in the kitchen
Searching for something to say

No still I can't sleep in this bed
Something crept into my head
I cracked a door in my brain
Can't seem to close it again

Oh my bonnie boy
If I squander my summers
Will you let me winter with you

Can't conquer the whims of my tongue
Voice is no longer my own
Took it for granted too long
Now all I can sing is this song

And you planted a seed in my mouth
Tip of my tongue it did sprout
A tangle of roots in my belly
A bower of roses my sigh

Oh my bonnie boy
If I squander my summers
Will you let me winter with you

March, April might open your arms
Can't fail to open the skies
Wasted my blessings in May
Watching my brothers make hay

Still June and July could be kind
August might smile on my star
Blurring the days though I tried
September could never get far

Oh my bonnie boy
If I squander my summers
Will you let me winter with you
