Subway

Your love is like the womb

in comfort there I wallow

This spring is like the tomb

this poison soon, I'll swallow

And kisses like the wind

a trail of leaves I'll follow

The summer, the stars, will rescind

in the fall, we'll sing "Dejalo"

 

Winter's harsh, becoming rough

but kisses, wind's still blowing

And when the going gets tough

and the tough get going,

The cold may do

some growing

 

So when the mild days get longer

born to remember then

Or the beating hearts get stronger

when we laugh at way back when

 

And as our brains, they cease to squander

and our memories just grow fonder

We will bloom in time to sing

this spring all over again
