[Verse 1]
So I drove to Lakeside, parked my car and walked around
Looking for an answer, but I found nothing
To that ground of certainty that I have sought but seldom found
Still, I'd say the seeking must mean something

[Chorus]
To ash, I am burning down
As the spring returns me to you

[Verse 2]
On my birthday, all the calla lilies are in bloom again
And they sing hymns of color like a congregation
All livin' large or livin' fast
All we seem to do's react
And move on and on and on from station to station

[Chorus]
To ash, I am burning down
As the spring returns me to you

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
As the spring returns me
All livin' large, all livin' fast
All we seem to do's react
And move on and on and on from station to station
[Outro]
As the spring returns me to you
