Back in the spring

When I thought of those things

I dodged the questions

I ducked the clouds

There were shadows in my heartland

Back in the fall when I knew it all

The wrong seemed right

And the right seemed wrong

There were shadows in the backyard

Listen boy when he talks to you

Listen to what he says

He wore a familiar face I know

Wake up and take a feel

A familiar face I saw

Wake up and take a feel

Back in the fall when I knew it all

I dodged the questions

I ducked the clouds

There were shadows in my homeland

Back in the spring

I thought of those things

In my mind

Listen boy when he talks to you

Won't you listen to what he says

He wore a familiar face I know

Wake up and take a feel

A familiar face I saw

Wake up and take a feel
