Charlotte Martin - Urge For Going

I awoke today and found

the frost perched on the town

It hovered in a frozen sky

Then it gobbled summer down

When the sun turns traitor cold

And shivering trees are standing

in a naked row

I get the urge for going

But I never seem to go

I get the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown and

Summertime is falling down

and winter is closing in

I had me a man in summertime

He had summer-colored skin

Not another girl in town

My darling's heart could win

But when the leaves fell trembling down

Bully winds did rub their faces in the snow

He got the urge for going

And I had to let him go

He got the urge for going

When the meadow grass was turning brown and

Summertime was falling down

and winter was closing in

The warriors of winter

They gave a cold triumphant shout

And all that stays is dying

All that lives is getting out

See the geese in chevron flight

Flapping and racing on before the snow

They've got the urge for going

And they've got the wings to go

They get the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown and

Summertime is falling down

and winter is closing in

I ply the fire with kindling now

I pull the blankets up to my chin

I lock the vagrant winter out

And fool my wandering in

I'd like to call back summertime and

Have her stay for just another month or so

She's got the urge for going

So I guess she'll have to go

She gets the urge for going

When the meadow grass is turning brown and

All her empires are falling down and

Winter's closing in

And I get the urge for going

When the meadow grass was turning brown and

Summertime is falling down

and winter is closing in

And winter's closing in

And winter's closing in
