Blackberry winter comes without a warning
Just when you think that spring's around to stay
And you wake up on a cold, rainy morning
And wonder what on earth became of May
Blackberry winter only lasts a few days
Just long enough to get you feeling sad
When you think of all the love that you have wasted
On someone who you never really had
I’ll never get over losing you
But I had to learn that life goes on
And the memory grows dim, like a half-forgotten song
Till the blackberry winter reminds me that you're gone
I get so lonely, most of all in springtime
I wish I could enjoy the first of May
But I seem to know that blackberry winter
Is not so far away
It's not so far away
