Maybe its got something to do with spring

The sun is shining where clouds have been
maybe its something to do with spring.
I feel no older than seventeen,
maybe its something to do with spring.

A feeling I cant express
a sort of lilt in the air
a lyrical loveliness seems everywhere

the spring is here dear
oh dear oh dear dear
cant you see the simply agonising sheen on every angry little tree
you must admit that its rather fun
to think that every single thing that nature ever does is rather over done
you see exactly what I mean it all looks far to clean
a badly painted scene,
the grass is far to green

Perhaps its something we have missed
I never could of been a sentimentalist
still there is something in the atmosphere
a sort of something near that makes me happy here

the sun is shining where the clouds have been
I feel no older than seventeen
maybe its something to do with spring
a feeling I cant express a sort of lilt in the air
a lyrical loveliness that seems everywhere

The spleeped expression is quite obscene
maybe its got something to do with spring.
Noel Coward

All you can ever count on are the raindrops

I'm by no means blue but have always just liked this song.

Sit there and count your little fingers
What can you do,little girl you through
Sit there and count your little fingers
unhappy little girl blue

Sit there and count the raindrops
Falling on you, its time you knew
All you can ever count on are the raindrops
That falls on little girl blue

Won't you just sit there
Count the little raindrops falling on you
Its time you knew all you can ever count on
Are the raindrops falling on little girl blue

Ain't no use old girl
You might as well surrender
Cause your hope is getting slender
Why won't some body send a tender blue boy
To cheer up little girl blue
Nina Simone

For we must have music

Listen to the strain it plays once more for us
There it is again the past in store for us
wake in memory some forgotten song
to break the rhythm driving us along
and may...
harmony again at last call for us

play orchestra play
play something sweet and light and gay
for we must have music we must have music
to drive our fears away

while our illusions swiftly fade for us
lets have have an orchestra score
in the confusion the years have made for us
serenade for us just once more

life needn't be grey,
though its changing day by day

though a few old dreams may decay
play orchestra play
play orchestra play
Noel Coward
