[Silence]
\n[Instrumental Intro: Acoustic Guitar, Piano, Warm Organ, Deep Sub-Bass, Electric Guitar, Drums, Percussion, Saxophone]<\/p>\n

[Intro]
\nSpring came early…
\n(Or was it late?)
\nSummer stayed longer…
\n(Changing our fate)<\/p>\n

Leaves started fallin’
\nBefore they were due
\nWinter came knockin’
\nBut nobody knew<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nThe calendar said
\nIt was time for the change
\nBut outside the window
\nThings looked kinda strange<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nThe seasons
\n(Are changing)
\nRearranging
\n(For what reasons?)<\/p>\n

Arrive early
\n(Alive… barely)
\nStayed late
\n(At any rate…)
\nChanging<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nSummer said
\n“I’m gonna stay for a while”
\nAutumn was waiting
\nWith a puzzled-up smile<\/p>\n

Winter showed up
\nThen wandered away
\nSpring couldn’t figure
\nWhich month was today<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nThe seasons
\n(Are changing)
\nRearranging
\n(For what reasons?)<\/p>\n

Arrive early
\n(Alive… barely)
\nStayed late
\n(At any rate…)
\nChanging<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nIs it the weather?
\n(Or is it whether)
\n… we can get together<\/p>\n

Is it the climate…
\n(Caused by the primate?)<\/p>\n

Is it time…
\n(We saw the sign?)<\/p>\n

[Break]
\nEarly!
\n(Early!)<\/p>\n

Late!
\n(Late!)<\/p>\n

Wait…
\n(Wait!)<\/p>\n

Too late?<\/p>\n

[Instrumental]
\n[Extended Groove \u2014 Piano and Organ Lock Into Deep Bass]
\n[Electric Guitar Swells]
\n[Saxophone Call and Response]
\n[Drums Build]
\n[Percussion Rolls]<\/p>\n

[Pre-Chorus]
\nThe Earth keeps spinning
\nThe seasons keep turning
\nThe patterns keep shifting
\nThe questions keep burning<\/p>\n

What once arrived
\nAt a familiar time
\nIs showin’ up early
\nThen falling behind<\/p>\n

[Final Refrain]
\nThe seasons
\n(Are changing)
\nRearranging
\n(For what reasons?)<\/p>\n

Arrive early
\n(Alive… barely)
\nStayed late
\n(At any rate…)
\nChanging<\/p>\n

The seasons…
\n(Are changing…)<\/p>\n

The reasons…
\n(Enraging…)<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\nThe seasons
\n(Are changing)
\nRearranging
\n(For what reasons?)<\/p>\n

Arrive early
\n(Alive… barely)
\nStayed late
\n(At any rate…)
\nChanging<\/p>\n

For what reasons?<\/p>\n

[Whisper]
\nChanging…<\/p>\n

[Silence]<\/p>\n
