Lyrics for Song: Don't Do Sadness/Blue Wind [John Gallagher Jr]
Lyrics for Album: Spring Awakening [soundtrack] [2006]
[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
