The Last Days Of Winter Lyrics - Levellers

I spy with my little eye, the sun shining brightly 

The clouds rolling by the last days of winter 

Now seem so far away and everything looks green 

When it used to be gray and I've watched the change 

Like the changing in my mind and I chased the leaves 

Like the words I never find, like the people I knew 

Who I sometimes see today some still bright like fire 

And some faded away 

I turn on the radio and someone's playing a song 

I turn on the news, hear what's going on 

I turn on my back when I'm full of beer 

And I turn off the news when I don't want to hear 

And I've seen a girl who looks so very sad 

Nothing left but a memory of all the times she's had 

And I've seen a man who looks so sad inside 

Nothing left but the memories from which he cannot hide
