the one that makes me scream she said
the one that makes me laugh she said
and threw her arms around my neck

I'll run away with you. I'll run away with you.

rebeccaf (Rebecca D Fishbein):
Sounds of winter in the air
Seem to flutter everywhere
Whistles in the hollow trees
Whispers of a summer breeze
Softly they float around
Like snowflakes on the ground
They pile up upon themselves
Filling up the empty shelves
Formed by winter's harsh embrace
They quickly start upon the race
To banish silence and solitude
Within the world's multitude
Quiet sounds now fill the air
As spring-time takes up the dare
To restore warmth upon the land
And offer summer a helping hand

therese (Therese):
One day in a nuclear age
they may understand our rage
They build machines that they can't control
And bury the waste in a great big hole

But deadly for twelve thousand years is
carbon fourteen
We work the black seam together
