It's the first day of spring
And my life is starting over again
The trees grow, the river flows
And its water will wash away my sins
For I do believe that everyone has one chance
To fuck up their lives
But like a cut down tree, I will rise again
And I'll be bigger and stronger than ever before

For I'm still here hoping that one day you may come back
For I'm still here hoping that one day you may come back

There's a hope in every new seed
And every flower that grows upon the earth
And though I love you, and you know that
Well I no longer know what that's worth
But I'll come back to you in a year or so
And I'll rebuild, be ready to become
Oh the person, you believed in
Oh the person, that you used to love

For I'm still here hoping that one day you may come back
For I'm still here hoping that one day you may come back

sort of obsessed with noah and the whale right now. i recall hearing them in portland, and promptly forgot about them until driving with darja the other day. they are beautiful and brilliant. they have a new cd that doesn't come out until october sixth, but some of the songs are listenable online. like this song. it's my favorite. i can't wait to get this album. i'm very excited. and very in need of autumn sounds. which is ironic, since the album is called the first days of spring. hmm. bad timing.

i wonder about many things.
