Lyrics:
Katie, where did you go?
There are roses that dried
By your room, just outside-
And I can't recall
The last time I saw you, my friend
Though we share an address
Seems I’m seeing you less
Everyday
Oh, Katie is your plate full?
You've got bills piling up
On the table - I'll clear you a space
And pour some iced tea
Oh dearest Katie, come out
You can put it on me
Katie it is shameful
To let a day like today pass
With the window shades drawn
There'll be time enough
For the dark when the short day is done
There are chairs in the shed
We can use to sit
Out on the lawn
Katie, Katie
Fell down a well of despair
I've been there
I may be unable
To say anything
That can soften or smolder
The worries that burn in you now
But please allow me to try
Katie, I'll try
You know what they say about April?
Maybe they're right
And although it's July
August may bring you surprises
And fields full of flowers
And oh, my dear friend
I'll remain where I'm standing
Beside you
To see your sweet smile

I love how lively and melodic the tune is. And the prism effects are as hypnotic as the vocals.. Love it
