Dar Williams The Green World Spring Street I'm sorry that I left you With your questions all alone But I was too happy driving And too angry to drive home I was thinking about the easy courage Of my distant friends They said I could let this bridge wash out And never make amends Can I blow this small town Make a big sound Like the star of a film noir postcard Can I just forget the frames I shared with you And I can't believe what they're saying They're saying I can change my mind Start over on Spring Street I'm welcome anytime Well there are Spring Street storefront daisies Floating on their neon stems There are new shirts on the clothes racks Should I feel like one of them I can find a small apartment Where a struggling artist died And pretend because I pay the rent I know that pain inside Yeah, let's watch the tour bus stop and tell us Here's the scene of a spring green life dream Take the best part Write it in your caffeine diary And I can't believe what they're saying They're saying I can leave tonight Start over on Spring Street I'm welcome anytime This year April had a blizzard Just to show she did not care And the new dead leaves They made the trees look like children with gray hair But I'll push myself up through the dirt And shake my petals free I'm resolved to being born And so resigned to bravery Yeah the one who leaves this also grieves this Too much rain on a prairie flood plain Houses floating, love is like that We built on the river And that's to say, yeah I'm leaving But I don't have to go there I don't have to go to (Am7)Spring Street 'Cause it's spring everywhere . . .
