All the Same to Me

It's hard to believe just two years ago
I sang of snow and bitter cold
Like trusted friends I knew so well
Now they're all the same to me

But now the wind just attacks my flesh
The snow is packed with ice and muck
And these streets I loved so well
Look all the same to me

        I can't win or lose
        Whatever road, whatever shoes
        Happiness or misery
        It's all the same to me

It's kind of sad this winter melt
Does not hold the promise of Spring
It drains away my youth and trust
Until it's all the same to me

        I can't win or lose
        Whatever road whatever shoes
        Happiness or misery
        It's all the same to me

        I can't win or lose
        Whatever road whatever shoes
        Happiness or misery
        It's all the same to me

It's hard to believe but it's probably true
I won't always feel this way
I'll learn to love those streets again
When I get back someday

        I can't win or lose
        Whatever road, whatever shoes
        Happiness or misery
        It's all the same to me

        I can't win or lose
        Whatever road, whatever shoes
        Happiness or misery
        It's all the same to me
