[Orchestra chimes, like an alarm]

[Sad music]
[Chimes continue]

[Whisper] Another winter.

[Wistful music]

[Singing] The renters go home.

[Music]
[Subtle chimes]

The maple goes

from crimson to brown.

[Soft music]

Oh, God.

[Music]

My God.

[Music]

Another winter

[Music]

in a summer town.

[Winsome music]

The beach is empty.

They covered the pools.

[Music]

The patio umbrellas come down.

[Music]

Ohhh, God.

[Strings, music]

Myyy God.

[Music]

Another winter

in a summer town.
[Music builds]

One little leaf

adrift in the breeze

refuses to fall

from the sky.

Blown by the wind,

it clings to the tree,

unwilling to wither

and die.

The summer's over,

[Music]

but I'm still a girl,

[Music]

cavorting in my

carnival crown.

From blossom to blossom,

I buzz like a bee,

then glance in the mirror,

and who do I see?

A middle aged woman

inhabiting me.

[Chord]

Because it's winter

[Strings music]

in a summer town.

[Soft crescendo]

[Melody]

Oh oh oh oh ohhh.

[Big Edie] Ah ah ah ahhh.

[Big Edie, Little Edie duet]

Ohh ohhh, oh ohhh
(Ahh ahhh, ah ahhh)

[Music]

[Duet]

Yesterday's dreams

are faded bouquets
(Only a rose)

roses that died

on the vine.
(Just a memory divine)

Yesterday seems
(of love)

more real than today,
(when sweet youth)

it's difficult drawing the line.
(was mine...)

My season ended
(ended)

a long time ago.
(a long time ago.)

But no one took 
the party tent down.

(All alone now.)

The pink paper lanterns

still twinkle in place.

My young Navy hero,

his tender embrace.

[Flute]

My sapphire-blue ocean

Oh, how can I face

Another winter

[Sad music]

in a summer town?

[Music]

Ohhhh, God.

[Horns]

[Music]

Ohhhhh God.

[Soft music]

Myyyyy God.

[Violins]

[Musical chimes]
