Where has the summer gone?
it doesn't seem to have been here very long
Now all at once the nights are getting darker
There's a chill in the air
I must dig out my parka!
It was all over in a flash
now it's back to winter gear
get my boots out of storage
Where is the winter cheer?
Must winter always be full of gloom & rain?
but I mustn't despair
if winter means one thing, it's that my birthday is almost here
Tons of cake and presents too
Oh winter's not so bad
I get like this every year
It must be that seasonal thing called S.A.D

What is it about mornings
that I just can't stand?
When the dreaded alarm goes off
with such menace and demand
I just want to slide under my quilt
when everyone else is rising up
I only want to wilt!
The postman won't leave me alone
he pounds on my door
at unearthly hours
with parcels galore
It's the same with the phone
it won't stop ringing in my head
Why, oh why, can't they leave me in my bed?
It's just not fair
all I want is some peace
It's not much to ask
but they don't care
Now next door is cutting the grass
then he'll be using the strimmer
He's at it for hours, the noisy ***
Ding **** the door bell is going again
Oh no, it's the Avon lady
she's such a pain
"It's 9.30 you know, shouldn't you be up?"
I feel like being incredibly rude
and saying something very crude
But I'm really too tired
to bother at all
I'll leave a note hanging on my door
Do NOT disturb
Don't bother to call
I'm not really here
I'm sleeping, that's all!

The winds of change blow ever near
Can't take away this taste of fear
Storms are brewing in my mind
Maybe calm will follow and fate will be kind
Or maybe my life will turn upside down
My anxious smiles will become a frown
The eternal flame of hope burnt out
with an everlasting shower of disappointment and doubt
Or maybe happiness will step right in
take away the shadows of the night
that crawl around in my brain until daylight
My lust for life will re-appear, and drive away that lonely tear
Hope will never fade as long as I am alive
For a better life I will continue to strive
Maybe this, maybe that
Who knows what will happen to me
I'll just make a wish, cross my fingers, then wait and see.
