A HAZY SHADE OF WINTER , Simon & Garfunkel Time, time, time see what's become of me While I looked around for my possibilities. I was so hard to please. Look around, Leaves are brown, And the sky is a hazy shade of winter. We are a Salvation Army band. Down bv the riverside's there got to be a better ride than what you've got planned Carry your cup in your hand And look around, leaves are brown, Its a hazy shade of winter Hang on to your hopes my friend. That's to mean a bit to say that if your hopes should pass away then simply pretend that you can build them again! Look around, the grass is high, the fields are ripe. It's the springtime of my life . . . Seasons changes with the scenery, Weaving time in a tapestry. Won't you stop and remember me, At any convenient time, Funny while my memory sleeps we'll open noble manuscripts of unpublished rhyme, Drinking my vodka and lime. I look around, leaves are brown now, and the sky is a hazy shade of winter Look around, leaves are brown, there's a patch of snow on the ground, Look around, leaves are brown, there's a patch of snow on the ground, Look around, leaves are brown, there's a patch of snow on the ground.
