[Orchestra chimes, like an alarm]
[Sad music] [Chimes continue]
[Whisper] Another winter.
[Wistful music]
[Singing] The renters go home.
[Music] [Subtle chimes]
The maple goes
from crimson to brown.
[Soft music]
Oh, God.
[Music]
My God.
[Music]
Another winter
[Music]
in a summer town.
[Winsome music]
The beach is empty.
They covered the pools.
[Music]
The patio umbrellas come down.
[Music]
Ohhh, God.
[Strings, music]
Myyy God.
[Music]
Another winter
in a summer town. [Music builds]
One little leaf
adrift in the breeze
refuses to fall
from the sky.
Blown by the wind,
it clings to the tree,
unwilling to wither
and die.
The summer's over,
[Music]
but I'm still a girl,
[Music]
cavorting in my
carnival crown.
From blossom to blossom,
I buzz like a bee,
then glance in the mirror,
and who do I see?
A middle aged woman
inhabiting me.
[Chord]
Because it's winter
[Strings music]
in a summer town.
[Soft crescendo]
[Melody]
Oh oh oh oh ohhh.
[Big Edie] Ah ah ah ahhh.
[Big Edie, Little Edie duet]
Ohh ohhh, oh ohhh - Ahh ahhh, ah ahhh
[Music]
[Duet]
Yesterday's dreams
are faded bouquets - Only a rose
roses that died
on the vine. - Just a memory divine
Yesterday seems - of love
more real than today, - when sweet youth
it's difficult drawing the line. - was mine...
My season ended - ended
a long time ago. - a long time ago.
But no one took the party tent down.
- All alone now.
The pink paper lanterns
still twinkle in place.
My young Navy hero,
his tender embrace.
[Flute]
My sapphire-blue ocean
Oh, how can I face
Another winter
[Sad music]
in a summer town?
[Music]
Ohhhh, God.
[Horns]
[Music]
Ohhhhh God.
[Soft music]
Myyyyy God.
[Violins]
[Musical chimes]
