SAD* song
The morning and my mood keep getting darker by the day
Grey skies weighing heavy on my heart
Wrapping up in layers just to keep the cold at bay
And hoping for the autumn sun to force the clouds to part
This season’s charms are no less than the others
But somehow they are often lost on me
I force myself to raise my glance, to drink the colors in
‘Cause if I don’t I’ll soon succumb to the law of gravity
Autumn always finds me falling deep into despair
I need your light, your shelter from the storm
And when you’re gone I can’t go on, my world just falls apart
Stay with me, lay with me and keep this body warm
Remind me of the times we’ve felt the sunshine
The heat so strong we scrambled for the shade
Tropical vacations are just dreams to me right now
If I could bring that feeling back I’d have it made
Tell me of the good times that are coming
Help me build a bridge that takes me to good times to be
Give me strength to last until the solstice bottoms out
And sunshine starts to fill the day again, I want to see
It’s just Autumn that always finds me falling deep into despair
I need your light, your shelter from the storm
And when you’re gone I can’t go on, my world just falls apart
Stay with me, lay with me and keep this body warm
