the antlers - green to gold lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
so, summer’s on the outs
cicadas swim around the house
crickets cl!cking down the block
we are on an early morning walk

[verse 2]
no one’s up and no cars on the street
hiding from an unrelenting heat
sun is climbing out from underneath
lighting up and roasting tired leaves

[chorus]
green to gold, going green to gold
green to gold, going green to gold

[verse 3]
a breeze blew in and autumn came to town
branches bare, the leaves rest on the ground
all that summer worked to bud and bloom
only to be swept up by a broom

[verse 4]
an uninvited frost formed overnight
by early afternoon, we’re losing light
now they’re saying two, three feet of snow
the reading dips to ten degrees below
[verse 5]
morning’s bright, the ancient ice withdraws
i take one step and the ground begins to thaw
tiny grasses spring up ’round my shoe
eager bits of green start peeking through

[verse 6]
seedlings turn to chutes and shoot up high
thunderclouds hold hostage summer sky
concrete’s hot with fire it can’t contain
we sit in front of fans and wait for rain

[verse 1]
and just like that, summer’s on the outs
cicadas swim around the house
crickets cl!cking down the block
while we are on an early morning walk

[chorus]
green to gold, going green to gold
green to gold, going green to gold
green to gold, going green to gold
green to gold, going green to gold

[instrumental]
[chorus]
green to gold, going green to gold
green to gold, going green to gold
green to gold, going green to gold
green to gold, going green to gold
