Artist: Various Artists Album: Spring Awakening [soundtrack] (2006) Title: Don't Do Sadness/Blue Wind [John Gallagher Jr]
Lyrics Don't Do Sadness/Blue Wind [John Gallagher Jr][Moritz] Awful sweet, to be a little butterfly Just wingin' over things, And nothing deep inside Nothing goin' goin' wild in you, you know, You're slowin' by the riverside Or floatin', high and blue
Or maybe, cool to be a little summer wind Like once through ev'rything And then away again With the taste of dust in your mouth all day But no need to know Like sadness, you just sail away
'Cause you know I don't do sadness Not even a little bit Just don't need it in my life Don't want any part of it I don't do sadness Hey, I've done my time Lookin' back on it all Man, it blows my mind I don't do sadness So been there Don't do sadness Just don't care
[Ilse (spoken)] Moritz Stiefel?
[Moritz (spoken)] Ilse? You frightened me.
[Ilse (spoken)] What are you looking for?
[Moritz (spoken)] If only I knew.
[Ilse (spoken)] Then what's the use of looking? I'm on the way home. Want to come?
[Moritz (spoken)] I don't know.
[Ilse (spoken)] God. You remember how we used to run back to my house and play pirates? Wendla Bergman, Melchior Gabor, you, and I?
[Ilse] Spring and summer ev'ry other day Blue wind gets so sad Blowin' through the thick corn, Through the bales of hay, Through the open books on the grass Spring and summer
Sure, when it's autumn Wind always wants to Creep up and haunt you Whistlin' it's got you With its heartache, with its sorrow Winter wind sings and it cries
Spring and summer ev'ry other day Blue wind gets so pained Blowin' through the thick corn, Through the bales of hay, Through the sudden drift of the rain Spring and summer
[Moritz (spoken)] Actually, I'd better go.
[Ilse (spoken)] Walk as far as my house with me.
[Moritz (spoken)] I wish I could.
[Ilse (spoken)] Then why don't you.
[Moritz (spoken)] 80 lines of virgil, 16 equations, a paper on the Hopsborks.
[Moritz] So maybe, I should be some kind of laundry line Hang their things on me And I will swing 'em dry You just wave in the sun through the afternoon And then see They come to set you free Beneath the risin' moon.
SUNG IN COUNTERPART
[Moritz] 'Cause you know I don't do sadness Not even a little bit Just don't need it in my life Don't want any part of it I don't do sadness Hey, I've done my time Lookin' back on it all Man, it blows my mind I don't do sadness So been there Don't do sadness Just don't care.
[Ilse] Spring and summer ev'ry other day Blue wind gets so lost Blowin' through the thick corn, Through the bales of hay
Spring and summer ev'ry other day Blue wind gets so lost Blowin' through the thick corn, Through the bales of hay, Through the wandering clouds of the dust Spring and summer |
