Well it is that time of year
Forget the good times that we`ve had
for tis the season to be sad
Look forward to the shortening days
to longer nights in many ways
When those who feel they need the sun
Living round here get--well none
As if to add to all that pain
weather forecast clouds and rain
Fellows listen this is true
women are more susceptible than you
And one in five at sometime had
developed the mood disorder sad
Winter depression the time in your life
when if your girlfriend,lover or wife
Your energys gone
you sleep for too long
and(this bits got me beat)
crave starchy food and sweets
Is there something you can do
what can help to get you through
If your feeling bad then who`s
the one to lose these winter blues
Rely on no one else for help
quite simply work to help yourself
as all of us at one time had
to fight to beat the dreaded sad
If you wish you can eat more fish
manys the one who will try it
Beat winter blues any way you choose
start with a more varied diet
In another situation try
Ionised air administration
or if your clever as your goin
try the hormone melatonin
Perhaps you, clever like the fox
install a therapy light box
then 30 minutes every day
can drive thise winter blues away.
If the above you have done
yet still theres no fun
if life still seems boring and flat
do not just think well thats that
Put your brain to the task
just try as i ask
Book a place in the sun
go away and have fun
Go to Greece or to Spain
get away from the rain
you may feel you`ve been cured
if your warm and your not bored
After some time in the sun
the rest of your life has just begun
in future times you will if you choose
know how to tackle these winter blues
Then after the holiday and best of all
when revitalised homeward you crawl
spring is here and brings more light
longer day follows shorter night
The summer sun shines brightly on
all trace of winter blues has gone
no reason now to feel so bad
unhappy perhaps but not again sad.
