Cabin Fever Lyrics - Singles - Casey Dienel

Autumn's coming in through the yard, 

Marching like a grandfather clock 

The badges he wears are tattered and old 

Like shredded ribbons of bright read and gold 

His arms are stiff and they're sure they're in time 

'Cause you can't slow a man with a pendulum down 

No, you can't slow a man with a pendulum down 

In autumn it's hard to keep the mood light 

The puddles get deep and my umbrella was swiped 

You'll find him in the strangest of places 

Jangling a coffee cup outside store twenty-four 

But he's not a beggar 'till the cold settles in 

And he swears there's an Indian summer in him 

Oh, he swears there's an Indian summer in him 

Drink from this flask to put warmth in your chest and sing around my piano 

I'm settling in for the long winter months with all of the friends I can handle 

And we'll toast this death of summer months 

And summer warmth 

And summer love 

If your heart starts feeling slow, there's a refrain I know and I'll teach you, it goes 

"when we've come down with cabin fever, 

And everyone's wearing sweaters 

And talking about leaving, we'll know it's time." 

Pack the car 

Head out to Vermont 

I'm trading Boston concrete for foliage 

It always feels like I'm on my way out 

Chasing seasons down but they never do budge 

Oh, as soon as you're used to one season it moves 

And that's all that you can count on 

That's all that you can count on 

When we've come down with cabin fever 

And everyone's wearing sweaters 

And talking about leaving we'll know it's time
