Lyrics
(...'round the corner
it's coming round
and 'round again....)
Through the steamy days of summer,
Autumn's winds and colors
I muscled-up through the winter
Here come the longer days
and shorter nights
That tick tock of the clock
moves on
and so must I.
Like Bob Marley
and my father,
I believe
everything is gonna
be all right.
Happy June, Happy June
I can't believe that you
are back here so soon
It's been a year and
I am better
not bitter. Better.
The 31st of May I got out,
as I was asked to.
I wish I could have
cut my heart out,
left it behind,
gift-wrapped and
addressed to you.
(Turns out I'm glad
I kept it! YEAH!)
June I sprouted wings
explored something new
By January I broke away
from my own cage
Time always has a way of
healing wounds.
Happy June, Happy June
I can't believe that you
are back here so soon!
Hope every year from here
gets better
and better. Better and better...
