Janis Ian - Sunflakes Fall, Snowrays Call lyrics
[Janis Ian - Sunflakes Fall, Snowrays Call lyrics]
It is the winter time of year
A time for all my troubled thoughts
Dreams to come clear
And all the seasons I held dear
Seem to have gone and left me
'lone with winter only here
Lonely, forever dreaming
My life is teeming with a yearning
I'd like to be learning
And it's summer out on the street
Sunflakes fall, snowrays call
Hey mama, it's me saying "Aww"
A policeman walks a most solitary beat
I feel at odds with the summertime
Ice is in my heart and winter's in my mind
I watch the snow upon my blind
As people walk in shorts
And sandals everywhere outside
Lonely, forever hiding
Caught in the icy path of early winter
Outside it's warm and sunlight glimmers
And it's summer out on the street
Sunflakes fall, the snowrays call
Hey mama, it's me saying "Eyye!"
A policeman walks a most solitary beat
Oh, when days are marked by winter's time
Spring and summer counts come
Racing to my mind
Within my heart the seasons never come inside
At times I hate and curse the
World for making winter mine
Lonely, forever dreaming
My life is teeming with a yearning
I'd like to be learning
And it's summer out on the street
Sunflakes fall, the snowrays call
Hey mama, it's me saying "Ow!"
A policeman walks a most solitary beat
A time for all my troubled thoughts
Dreams to come clear
And all the seasons I held dear
Seem to have gone and left me
'lone with winter only here
Lonely, forever dreaming
My life is teeming with a yearning
I'd like to be learning
And it's summer out on the street
Sunflakes fall, snowrays call
Hey mama, it's me saying "Aww"
A policeman walks a most solitary beat
I feel at odds with the summertime
Ice is in my heart and winter's in my mind
I watch the snow upon my blind
As people walk in shorts
And sandals everywhere outside
Lonely, forever hiding
Caught in the icy path of early winter
Outside it's warm and sunlight glimmers
And it's summer out on the street
Sunflakes fall, the snowrays call
Hey mama, it's me saying "Eyye!"
A policeman walks a most solitary beat
Oh, when days are marked by winter's time
Spring and summer counts come
Racing to my mind
Within my heart the seasons never come inside
At times I hate and curse the
World for making winter mine
Lonely, forever dreaming
My life is teeming with a yearning
I'd like to be learning
And it's summer out on the street
Sunflakes fall, the snowrays call
Hey mama, it's me saying "Ow!"
A policeman walks a most solitary beat
