No Springtime

[Verse 1]

Three in the meadow and two by the lake

How many songbirds will it take

To tell me so I still don't get it wrong?

What's gone is gone is gone is gone

Five silhouettes on the telephone pole

One outside your bedroom window

You don't know what you thought you knew

There's no springtime in the blues-ues

[Chorus]

I see you going back there again

To the moment where it all went wrong

Rubbernecking on the highway wreck

Then you see your own body lying on the ground

I know you're looping and you're looping and you're looping

It feels like you're never gonna break on through

I'll never cast that stone on you

'Cause oh my God, I do it too

[Verse 2]

Seven in the woods, four by the river

How many magpies spell forever?

Tell me so we don't get it wrong

What's gone is gone is gone is gone

Nine black lotus floating on the pond

Eight violets on a midnight lawn

We don't know what we thought we knew

There's no springtime in the blues-ues

[Chorus]

I see you going back there again

To the moment where it all went wrong

Rubbernecking on the highway wreck

Then you see your own body lying on the ground

I know you're looping and you're looping and you're looping

It feels like you're never gonna break on through

I'll never cast that stone on you

'Cause oh my God, I do it too

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

I see you going back there again

To the moment where it all went wrong

Rubbernecking on the highway wreck

Then you see your own body lying on the ground

I know you're looping and you're looping and you're looping

It feels like you're never gonna break on through

I'll never cast that stone on you

'Cause oh my God, I do it too
