Snowbirds And Townies

Fountains and fluorescent lights, the season has come
The snowbirds have crowded the nights
The townies are tired of beaches and bars, being packed so tight
And stages and inlets and traffic surround them 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'll fly north
When winter's done and we'll get burned in summer's sun

Fountains and fluorescent lights, the season has come
The snowbirds have take their flights
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
