All the lovely flowers Springing up from shades of grey For them I brave cold showers Just to catch a glimpse of May And I find They'll always catch my mind Away But the sun grows stronger Flowers start to wilt with heat I'll hide within the bower Pickin stickers from my feet But the day will cool to night We'll make our way knowing everything's alright ... And I'll wait or at least I'll try To cultivate something good in time

I just turned seven for the third time And it keeps on getting stranger every year Well the first time they bought me a bicycle And now, they're buying me beer And I know that I'm still learning From mistakes I've made a thousand times before And I know that before this night is through I'll have learned a couple more And I'll never get used to ageing 'Cause it seems like every year is just the same And I know I've never been this old in my life But I'd say I'm doing ok I just turned seven for the third time And it keeps on getting stranger every year Well the first time they bought me a bicycle And now you're buying me beer

Feels like summer's coming Coming round again Feels like summer's coming Coming round again Feels like summer's coming Coming round the bend Feels like summer's coming Coming round the bend Feels like summer's coming Coming round the bend Feels like summer's coming Coming round again Feels like summer's coming Coming round again Feels like summer's coming Coming round again Feels like summer's coming Coming round the bend

about

So, I wrote music for a movie that some friends and I put together in college. Check out the movie here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqYyPJkNSiY They're great, I can't act, and it was a lot of fun.

Includes two songs not written for the movie, but written and recorded at about the same time. Hope you like them!
