this time of year

not a day goes by
they're all the clutter in my room
i would let them all go tomorrow if she'd just say to

but she don't want to say a word
with her hands in her pockets and kicking up dirt
she's got the sky on the tip of her tongue and for all it's worth 

she says the stars are cold and bright 
and these short days bring early nights
the stars are cold and bright, this time of year

i've days without ideas
where i just drag myself all over town
fix these colors to both my eyes and build the perfect smile

she's got it down most sunny days
just trying not to sing out of tune
but some old songs just weren't meant to shine like they used to.

the stars are cold and bright
and these short days bring early nights
the stars are cold and bright, this time of year
