Almost June Verse 1 Cold front rolled through the Seaport again, late May and I’m still dressed like a Michigan kid in the wind. Beanie pulled down, hands in my coat, the harbor’s gray and the gulls all know that spring round here is a rumor, not a friend — it shows up late and it leaves before the end. Pre-Chorus Rained the whole damn day, sky like it forgot the way to let a little light back in. Chorus But the sun came out at six o’clock, slipped through the clouds like it picked the lock, and I swear I felt the whole town breathe. Hold on, hold on, it’s almost June — we waited through the cold so long, and maybe summer’s coming soon. Hold on, hold on, it’s almost June. Verse 2 I’ve been counting days like loose change in a jar, freezing on a bench, asking how late is too late, how far is too far. There’s green on the Common, there’s warmth in the air for a minute, then gone, but I caught it there — proof that the thaw don’t owe me a thing, it just comes when it comes, like everything. Pre-Chorus So I’ll keep the beanie on one more week, then it’s gone, trade it for the light again. Chorus ‘Cause the sun came out at six o’clock, slipped through the clouds like it picked the lock, and I swear I felt the whole town breathe. Hold on, hold on, it’s almost June — we waited through the cold so long, and maybe summer’s coming soon. Hold on, hold on, it’s almost June. Bridge And I know it’s coming, I can feel it in the dark, the long days, the warm nights, the kids out in the park. One good evening’s all it takes to believe the winter finally breaks — break free, break free, break free. Outro Cold May, almost gone, hold on, hold on, hold on. It’s almost June.
