Springtime
And then springtime was arriving and the clouds were white instead of gray
Snow ran down into the gutters and the crocuses woke up to start the day
And I couldn't help but smile even as my eyes were growing wet
Turn my face to the horizon trying to slow the beating in my chest
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Gimme smiles, gimme laughter in a jar I can keep on my window sill
Cause when the world starts getting colder, I'll feel a decade older you know I will
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Was it what my parents taught me? Was it just how I was born?
Cause I'm always counting all the lines around my eyes against the things I haven't done
And every pebble on the sidewalk, every blade of grass that tickled my bare toes
Is gone, is always gone away to someplace I can't go
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Gimme smiles, gimme laughter in a jar I can keep on my window sill
Cause when the world starts getting colder, I'll feel a decade older you know I will
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Snow ran down into the gutters and the crocuses woke up to start the day
And I couldn't help but smile even as my eyes were growing wet
Turn my face to the horizon trying to slow the beating in my chest
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Gimme smiles, gimme laughter in a jar I can keep on my window sill
Cause when the world starts getting colder, I'll feel a decade older you know I will
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Was it what my parents taught me? Was it just how I was born?
Cause I'm always counting all the lines around my eyes against the things I haven't done
And every pebble on the sidewalk, every blade of grass that tickled my bare toes
Is gone, is always gone away to someplace I can't go
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Gimme smiles, gimme laughter in a jar I can keep on my window sill
Cause when the world starts getting colder, I'll feel a decade older you know I will
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
