Snowbirds And Townies Lyrics
fountains and flourescent lights
the season has come,
the snowbirds have crowded the nights
the townies are tired of beaches and bars
being packed so tight
and bridges and traffic and inlets are locked in their fight
and on these boats
ride the hopes of...
working class boys, dreaming of girls from faraway points
and better things
like winter flings
and longing after spring has sprung
and they fly north when winter's done
and we get burned in summer's sun
fountains and flourescent lights
when the season has come,
the snowbirds have crowded the nights
townies and tourists find unlikely love at first sight
and swear that they're never leaving,
and that is their plight
and on these boats
ride the hopes of...
working class boys, dreaming of girls from faraway points
and better things
like winter flings
and longing after spring has sprung
they fly north when winter's done
and we get burned in summer's sun
this winter is lasting forever
at least for tonight
and i know that you're never leaving
until your flight takes you off
and out of my arms
and into the air
so far from your charms
that I cannot bear
another year
in this long forgotten beach town we once shared
and this winter is lasting forever
at least for tonight
and i know that you're never leaving,
never leaving me again
not again

This song is so beautiful...
yes yes i am behind u on that one, E.J. especially good to listen to after spring break and leaving the spring flings behind for next spring :(
It sucks live
HEY!!!! shut ur face u pessemest!!! the song rocks and thats the bottom line k??
i thought this was about the songs meaning, not bad opinions of worse building acoustics.
its ok to say a song sucks.. and its ok to say a song sucks live. chill out people.
This song is so lovely...anyone seen the video?
yeah the video is awesome....
i don't really think there's anyone who can't relate to this song... the thing I love about fsf is that they come right out and say what they mean but they find the most beautiful words to use~ ok and you people need to chill!!!
i haven't seen the video, but this song is most definitively the best song that i've ever heard, not my favorite, but the best...
