spring in california

    false february spring

     fools trees into blooming

    early spring's irish creeks

     sneak into my blood streams



    old melodies and stories

    the spring's cheap champagne

    carries light memories



    my oh my

    her name was computer science

    she was a calculating type

    but we formed a heavenly alliance

    now I miss her bits and bytes



    i must sing to her

    (any pretext will do)

     don't kid yourself

     that i was in love with you

     i kid myself

     that i wasn't in love with you.



    old melodies and stories

    the spring's cheap champagne

    carries light memories



    i know food & evenings & dance

    but words -- i split in two

    i don't know who i am

    and who was in love with you

    i know evenings & champagne & dance

    but i am lost in the land of romance



    welcome (!) the early spring in my late autumn

    i bathe in champagne bubbles

    on my way to the bottom
