Mercury dances in its skyscraper cell, rising and falling like rhapsody
|
And I see winter's broken like lace, in time for a celebration
|
|
Thaw wails inside the walls and laughs in the corners, delighting in its evident victory
|
Till I feel springtime counting its days of flaunting a novel sensation
|
|
Like it's leaving, leaving behind the weight vying for yesteryear
|
Leaving promises in its wake, whispering, my love, you're still here
|
|
Hold on to your memories of sundogs and rainbows, as time writes a premature eulogy
|
And I feel summertime passing in haste, like running out of patience
|
|
Quilted with knit and umbrellas and scarfs and a mild understanding of irony
|
I feel autumn leaving the race, all done with the exhilaration
|
|
It's leaving, leaving behind the weight vying for yesteryear
|
Leaving promises in its wake, whispering, my love, you're still here
|
|
Mercury dances in its skyscraper cell, rising and falling in harmony
|
And I feel winter stealing my days, to herald another creation
|
|

You're Still Here
