lyrics

In the winter, when my skin turns blue
and every possible inch is covered with a layer of breathable nylon
I think about the last time I looked at you
and thought to myself, "this person's got a wonderful smile on"

But you don't have to smile for me
not if you don't want to
not if your face is tired

In the springtime, when I've made my choice
To go an hour without sneezing, spend less time hiding from friends in my basement
I think about the last time I heard your voice
And how good it is to sing with friends and forget for a minute about how you're gonna pay rent

But you don't have to sing for me
Not if you don't want to
Not if your voice is tired

In the summer when I come to bed
been staying up way too late with a beer in hand and a carefree disposition
Do you really think I've lost my head?
Sometimes you prepare so much for a thing, it's almost like you were wishing.

But you don't have to wish for me
we just have to make it through the fall
