Janis Ian A Song for All the Seasons of Your Mind Lyrics:
Waterfalls cascading down,
A summer wind of golden brown.
Leaves are flying in the air,
And in the sky of tangled hair.
There never were your love in life,
We're all the same on sunbeam rides.
Watch the sky as it turns blue,
Nights are slow to rush on you.
A song for all the seasons of your mind.

Other lands she's burying,
And all the doctors hurrying,
In mental institution,
And the reign of retribution.
All the muddy ponds and dirty sewers,
Feed your mind upon a skewer.
Put you up and pull you down,
Rusty nails turn fingers brown.
A song for all the seasons of your mind.

Laughter flows among the trees,
A gold and green of clarity.
Your eyes are aching from the fun,
And, oh, the evening's just begun.
You don't know why you're laughing so,
There is no cause for it to show.
But just the same, fall to the floor,
Of all the good times you recall.
A song for all the seasons of your mind.

Running through a blackened dream,
Awakened with a nightmare scream,
See your clothing come alive,
Earthquakes cause your mind to slide.
You try to find where peace has gone,
Like turning live a rubber swan.

Floating down an endless stream,
Forgetting mental poverty.
A song for all the seasons of your mind.

Happiness at loving one,
You gain the grace of sad-eyed swans.
And quietly beneath the tree,
Loving all his mystery.
The grass is still, it comes alive,
Beneath your naked-footed ride.
Feel the love within you grow,
Like beauty on a newborn rose.
A song for all the seasons of your mind.

Emptiness at losing him,
The memory of all you've seen.
The grass is shot to walk upon,
The meadowlark, the trees, are gone.
Like frightened doves before the war,
You vainly search for just one more.
And one becomes another one,
You wonder where the day has gone.
A song for all the seasons of your mind.

And with a song at evening breeze,
Knowledge comes so quietly.
The clear blue water from above,
An avalance can hold you up.
Leaves that swirl about your eyes,
May wear an unforseen disguise.
But when your clothing comes alive,
You can be sure it's you inside.
A song for all the seasons of your mind.
