WINTER'S COMIN' ON AGAIN
(Neal Merritt)

Dick Curless - 1970


Today I heard the cold winds moan 
And I saw some geese up on the wing
A southern home waits their returnin'
Ah, to be such a lucky thing
Nobody cares where I am goin'
And I don't remember where I've been
I only know the cold wind's blowin'
And winter's comin' on again

Once I was young and had a reason
For doin' everything I did
A pretty girl for every season
Without a conscience to forbid
And I used to know someone in this town
Someone I used to call a friend
But we ain't walkin' on the same ground
And winter's comin' on again

When that old sun comes up tomorrow
I'll find a highway headin' south
Maybe the sun will ease my sorrow
'Cause down south is where I started out
If someone asks me where you goin'
Well I'm just lookin' for the end
Too many cold winds I felt blowin'
And winter's comin' on again
And winter's comin' on again
