lyrics

Just Last Fall

Just last fall we dug the ground
In the dying ground we planted flowers
She said, “Winter will be long.”
“Let’s see what comes back around”
Just last fall we dug the ground

It’s a hard winter’s night
A long dark day
If they survive this bitter cold
We’ll see the buds come up in May

I hear a whisper of spring

Just last month I fell to the ground
On my bedroom floor I fell to pieces
Some say life’s a constant fading
We were born to decay
And now I’m running on repeat
The words that the doctor said
Just last month I fell to the ground

It’s a hard winter’s night
A long dark day
Can I survive this bitter cold
to see the buds come up in May?

I need a whisper of spring
A whisper of spring

Just this morning I saw it grow
A little leaf that broke my darkness
Fighting for the light
In that harsh winter ground
It was like it always knew
That we would come back around
I breathed in that budding flower
And whispered “I’m still alive”
Just this morning I saw a light
