Lyrics
Vancouver - © words and music by Mark S. Ludes (MSL)
(song about the City)
V.1
You here people talk about their homes, and the weather where they live.
Some love the cold, some like it hot, some take just what they get.
Funny, how a change of season can make a difference in a life.
In the springtime everything starts to bloom and the people come alive.
V.2
In the fall the leaves start coming down in yellow, red and gold.
Ive never seen such beautiful colors, but its the calm before the cold.
Ive got those Grey skies in the Winter, and the butterflies in the Spring,
Got sunshine in the Summer, and Vancouver is so green.
Chorus:
But if you come here in the Winter you better bring yourself some sun,
Wintertime is cold and wet, Vancouver is not much fun.
But as Springtime comes and with it sun, it helps to ease your pain
Spend the Summer in Vancouver, youll forget about that rain.
V. 3
Sometimes it just takes you awhile to adjust to where you live
And the weather changes, good and bad, just be willing to forgive.
Ive lived my life in many parts of the big ol USA.
Vancouver is a special place. I truly have to say.
Chorus:
But if you come here in the winter you better bring yourself some sun,
Wintertime is cold and wet, Vancouver is not much fun.
But as springtime comes and with it sun, it helps to ease the pain
Spend the summer in Vancouver, youll forget about that rain.
