lyrics
Bitten by a spring bug
It gets me every time
This year I'm on my own
And the buzz is all mine
When it starts getting fun
Its poison makes my blood rush
Past lives walk by and I blush
They ask to sit
I try leaving fast enough to outrun them
Remember that's a bad plan
Their thing, not mine
I can't decline
Stay just a little longer
Don't be none the wiser
And hey, as long as you don't keep me up at night
It's easy
You can have one on me
Tell me that's right:
It all counts
The evasions
Every procrastination
After all
Run down the same streets
I did last time it bit me
And time would act all funny
And I'd stand so still
For all its pauses
Time will buckle down and pass me
This spring's already a memory
And I should leave
Until I go
Stay just a little longer
So that I could never
Say I could live without you
Now all that I want to do is within you

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
