See You Again

from The Lake Effect by Tommy Crawford

lyrics

Spring is near
Yeah the daylight appears
I can feel it coming like a thrumming through my bones

But now the nest is empty
For she has up and left me
A thousand miles away my little bird has flown

Ooh but as the day breaks onto miles of frozen plain
Sunlight is melting, honey
And steaming up the rain
I tried to call you across that vast and wild space

But you did not get the call
That don't bother me at all
I'll just pick up from the root ball

And I'm gonna see you again

Snows again!
They can’t keep me in
Gonna dig a tunnel just like rabbits dig a hole

That winter wind
It makes a great coat thin
But I've got heft and bark and warmth built up in store

You told me that our bodies grow as one across the land
When springtime hits the leafy meadow I'll wake up again
Every time I get up in the night I know you do too
That rope that's stretched so tight is pulling me on home to you

And I know it's pulling you too
Cause one and one is one, too
So let's just see this thing through

And I'm gonna see you again

Tomorrow morning
Is almost upon me
The night is ending, we're upending winter's throne

So come the spring
And with it bring
My little darling and the love that we have known

Here you come to me across a lost and lonely plain
Where men had built a house of me and priests invoked my name
They labored in their love of me but I declare not in vain
As springtime teaches, things that we thought gone right soon we'll gain

My bird, your branches call
A good oak warm and tall
And out our bodies will crawl

When I see you again

Ba da ba ba bow
