Little Live Things

[Verse 1]
All the snow is melting
The river's running high
Robins on the green
Their fledglings fly
The trees are sending out their buds
Every limb has something new
But with all this beauty bursting
Tell me how come this feels so blue?

[Chorus]
All this rain
All this sun
It don't bring her back

[Verse 2]
Tulips coming up
In bright yellow and red
The daffodil in faded white
Sunshine, its head
The way she looked at you back then
What you'll never regret
Still, all the little live things
They don't make you forget this blue

[Chorus]
Shе's gone this time
Flown for good
She mеant what she said even as you misunderstood

[Outro]
Never mind the blacktop yard
Your garden now unformed
Your rooftop perch a better view
Than any flowers you could plant down below
We'll wait all the livelong hours with you
'Til we can drown our sorrows
In Tir na nÓg
In Tir na nÓg
In Tir na nÓg
In Tir na nÓg
