Shel Silverstein - Changing Of The Seasons lyrics

Oh the changing of the seasons it's a pretty thing to see And though I find this balmy weather pleasin' There's the wind come from tomorrow and I hear it callin' me And I'm bound for the changing of the seasons Oh it's blowin' in Chicago and it's snowin' up in Maine And the Islands to the south are warm and sunny And I've got to feel the earth shake and I gotta feel the rain And I've got to know a taste of more than honey So don't ask me where I'm goin' or how long I'm gonna be away Don't make me give you all the hollow reasons I'll think of you like summer and I might be back some day When my heart miss the changing of the seasons Oh it's blowin' in Chicago... [ guitar ] Oh it's nothing that you said and it ain't nothing that you done And I wish I could explain you why I'm leavin' But there's some men need the winter and there's some men need the sun And there's some men need the changing of the seasons Yeah it's blowin' in Chicago...
