Fountains and fluorescent lights, the season has come   The snowbirds have crowded the nights   The townies are tired of beaches and bars, being packed so tight   And stages and inlets and traffic surround them in their fight      And on these boats ride the hopes of working class boys   Dreaming of girls from faraway points and better things like winter flings   And longing after spring has sprung and they'll fly north   When winter's done and we'll get burned in summer's sun      Fountains and fluorescent lights, the season has come   The snowbirds have take their flights   Townies and tourists find unlikely love at first sight   And swear that they're never leaving and that is their plight      And on these boats ride the hopes of working class boys   Dreaming of girls from faraway points and better things like winter flings   And longing after spring has sprung, they fly north   When winter's done and we get burned in summer's sun      This winter is lasting forever, at least for tonight and I know   That you're never leaving until your flight takes you off and out of my arms   And into the air, so far from your charms that I cannot bear   Another year in this long forgotten beach town we once shared      And this winter is lasting forever, at least for tonight   And I know that you're never leaving, never leaving me again, not again
