Waterfalls cascading down
A summer wind of golden brown
Leaves are flying in the air
And in the sky your tangled hair
The never worry lover life
For all the same on sunbeam rides
Watch the sky as it turns blue
Night is slow to rush on you
A song for all the seasons of your mind
ย
Avalanches burying
And all the doctors hurrying
A mental institution
And the rain of retribution
All the muddy ponds and dirty sewers
Feed your mind upon a skewer
They put you up and pull you down
Rusted nails turn fingers brown
A song for all the seasons of your mind
Laughter flows among the trees
A golden green clarity
Your eyes are aching from the fun
And, oh, the evening's just begun
You don't know why you're laughing so
There is no cause for it to show
But just the same fall to the floor
Of all the good times you recall
A song for all the seasons of your mind
ย
Running through a blackened dream
Awaken with a nightmare scream
See your clothing come alive
Earthquakes cause your mind to slide
You try to find where peace has gone
Like turning live a rubber swan
Floating down an endless stream
Forgetting mental poverty
A song for all the seasons of your mind
ย
Happiness at loving one
You gain the grace of sad-eyed swans
And quietly beneath a tree
Loving all his mystery
The grass is still, it comes alive
Beneath your naked foot it writhes
You feel the love within you grow
Like beauty on a newborn rose
A song for all the seasons of your mind
ย
Emptiness at losing him
The memory of all your sin
The grass is sharp to walk upon
The meadow lapped, the trees are gone
Like frightened doves before the war
You vainly search for just one more
As one becomes another one
You wonder where the day has gone
A song for all the seasons of your mind
And with the silent evening breeze
Knowledge comes so quietly
The clear blue water from above
An avalanche can hold you up
The leaves that swirl about your eyes
May wear an unforeseen disguise
But when your clothing comes alive
You can be sure it's you inside
A song for all the seasons of your mind
