Over The Rhine - Snowbirds Lyrics

Blue lights hanging from the tall palm trees
White wine, catfish and a light gulf breeze
They're saying it might drop to 60 degrees
For the snowbirds
Here come the snowbirds

Sandals, shorts and mosquitoes
Sunburns, bikinis and Speedos
People swimming in the ocean,
It's cold in there you know
But the snowbirds don't mind
The snowbirds

I just wanna be with you all winter
Fly from the north to the south this winter
Where the sky goes on forever and ever
Where the ocean and my heart come together
No more snow boots no earmuffs no sweaters
Just warm weather

Sailboats and seagulls lined along the causeway
Painters with easels misted in a salt spray
There's only one place I'm longing for today
Like a snowbird
Let me be a snowbird

I just wanna be with you all winter
Fly from the north to the south this winter
Where the sky goes on forever and ever
Where the ocean and my heart come together
No more snow boots no earmuffs no sweaters
Just warm weather
