lyrics

False Sense of Spring
© 2017 Geoff Fields, Jeff Oxford

Verse 1:
February in London, full of grey clouds
I fell down, after he drove away
I’d open the blinds, if I could see ‘em
Feels for all the world, like a rainy day

Chorus:
Used to look ahead to each tomorrow
Bated breath for each gift it might bring
But those dreams took a nap in a blanket of sorrow
Blame it all on a False Sense Of Spring

Verse 2:
Might have gone myself to the Piccadilly
But a royal pain walked into my head
Now all my plans gather dust on the shelf
Next to all those books I never read

Chorus:
Used to look ahead to each tomorrow
Bated breath for each gift it might bring
But those dreams took a nap in a blanket of sorrow
Blame it all on a False Sense Of Spring

Instrumental

Bridge:
Train whistle blowing down the track
Take my memory, don’t bring it back

Verse 3:
I once had charms, life in a bubble
Didn’t think love was rocket surgery
But now my eyes, keep seeing double
When he said I’m not his cup of tea

Chorus:
Used to look ahead to each tomorrow
Bated breath for each gift it might bring
But those dreams took a nap in a blanket of sorrow
Blame it all on a False Sense Of Spring
