In a Funny Way Lyrics

On a Summer day
You can hear her call
But in a funny way
She reminds you of the Fall

On a Summer day
You can hear her call
But in a funny way
She reminds you of the Fall

Through the fields
And the streams
And the lakes
And the trees
And the grass
And the logs
Run all my dogs

And I am…
Home again

In the Autumn air
You can see her smile
But in a funny way
She reminds you of a child
In the Autumn air
You feel her soul unfold
And in a funny way
You feel your own explode

Through the fields
And the streams
And the lakes
And the trees
And the grass
And the logs
Run all my dogs

And I am…
Home again

On a Winter day
You can hear her call
But in a funny way
When the snow begins to fall

On a Winter day
You can hear her call
And in a funny way
You love her even more

Through the fields
And the streams
And the lakes
And the trees
And the grass
And the logs
Run all my dogs

And I am…
Home again

Through the fields
And the streams
And the lakes
And the trees
And the grass
And the logs
Run all my dogs

And I am…
Home again

On a Summer day
You can hear her call
But in a funny way
She reminds you of the Fall

On a Summer day
You can hear her call
But in a funny way
She reminds you of the Fall

I love this song. All the four seasons are mentioned, but the central lines are:

On a winter day you can hear her call But in a funny way the snow begins to fall On a winter day you can hear her call And in a funny way you love her even more

Such beautiful lines! When I hear this I imagine a snowed up forest with the world's most beautiful girl there waiting... What a romantic imagination... Lyrics and sound harmonize so perfect, and this is truly rare.

Heard this the first time watching a movie called Laurel Canyon as it was in the opening credits. Absolutely loved it...odd but sweet. I think it's just an unusual way to describe one that a guy is infatuated with

When I hear this song, I don't know if it's my desire for lyrics to mean something more than the old boy/girl relationship thing, but it seems to me that the "her" in this song could be that intangible thing "home" that is so important to our psyche. Or it could even refer to mother earth or the environment. But I'm not sure, I just like songs to mean something more than just "love and marriage" stuff.
