In the Park In Spring

 

 

Loneliness in autumn is fine                                
Even if it’s nice to walk with someone                         
Among the falling leaves in the pouring rain         
I can still handle it               
I can handle the autumn alone              

Loneliness in winter is fine
Even if it’s nice to cuddle up with someone
As the snow is raging outside in the dark                  
I can still handle it                                              
I can handle the winter alone                                  
                                                                                       
Loneliness in summer is fine                                                
Even if it’s nice to lie with someone                                                             
In the sand on the beach as the sun sets                                                      
I can still handle it                                                   
I can handle the summer alone                                           

But walking in the park in spring                                                                            
Pains my heart, brings tears to my eyes                      
When watching the busy nesting birds                                 
Watching the people walking hand in hand                               
Then the emptiness in my own hand feels the most    

                                                                                                                                                                        
I must keep walking through this park alone                                            
As the hymns to love are sung from every tree                                        
While I just long to be nesting too                                                                                    
And I can handle many things                                                                          
But I cannot handle spring alone
