A Nor Easter has these old windows singing

at a pitch only it can coax.

I/'/m glad our sons/'/ tucked away in the Catskills,

but God, I miss him so.

And this old cabin Dad passed to me

still whispers with memories

of where our love began;

now this hurricanes/'/ trying to take away

what remains since you ran.

I’ve been through the first wall

with my life in a free fall,

now I/'/m in the eye of our sorrows start,

and if I make it through the last wall to the truth,

I/'/ll throw my thumb out for happier parts.

As soon as this Nor Easters/'/ spun along

I/'/ll spill our last tear and be gone,

away in the New England dawn,

yes, away in the New England dawn.
