remember that spring many years agoback when my hair was still...

remember that spring many years ago
back when my hair was still uncut
no credit cards, no lover
no home with 24 hour hot water
but back then i was so happy
although all i had was a beat up old guitar
on the streets, under the bridges, and in the fields
singing a ballad that no one recalls

if one day, i’m a lonely old man
please leave me in that moment
if one day, i disappear silently
please bury me in that spring season

i still remember those lonely spring seasons
i still hadn’t grown a beard
no valentines and no presents
no adorable little princess
but i never thought things were bad
even though all i had was delusions of love
in the dawn, the eve, the wind 
singing a ballad that no one recalls

if one day, i’m a lonely old man
please leave me in that moment
if one day, i disappear silently
please bury me in that spring season

gazing at the spring in full bloom now
still as warm as it once was
i’ve cut my hair and grown a beard
the pains of the past blows away with the wind
but i still feel such sorrow
time has only left me more perplexed
in this sunnny spring
i could not help the tears flowing

if one day, i’m a lonely old man
please leave me in that moment
if one day, i disappear silently
please bury me in that spring season
