THE LONGEST MONTH
Words and Music ©2010 Wendell Kimbrough.

Sun is out, but it’s not bright.
Snow on the ground is gray, not white.
Christmas bells are far, far away,
But it’s still two months, ‘til we reach May.

February, how I hate thee!
February, how I hate thee!

Well you may say it’s your birthday; or you may say you were in love.
Maybe you just love Valentine’s Day, so February is what you’re dreaming of.
As for me, I’d say you’re crazy. There’s only one thing else to say,
If you were born in February, your folks were getting on in the merry month of May.

Spring time, O Spring time, come back soon, come back soon;
O Spring time, O Spring time, come back soon!

Maybe you like the snowfall, getting buried under ice.
Getting locked up in your home, making monsters out of roommates who were nice.
As for me, I am crazy for the summertime rains
Thunderstorms in the afternoon that roll in quick and then quickly roll away.

Spring time, O Spring time, come back soon, come back soon
O Spring time, O Spring time, come back soon!
