Fine Time of Year
Embracing Change: A Fine Time of Year to Let Go
Lyrics
Take what you want, see to it
Expressing a willingness to let the other person take what they want.
You dust all your memories away
Suggesting a desire to erase or forget past memories.
Cause I can't find the strength to do it
Admitting a lack of strength to deal with the memories.
I can't remember what should go or what should stay
Struggling to differentiate between what should be remembered and what should be forgotten.
But it's a fine time of year to do it
Noting that the current time of year is suitable for taking such actions.
And it's a fine time of year to let me know
Expressing a desire for the other person to communicate their intentions.
Yes, it's a fine time of year to watch you disappear
Acknowledging that the season is appropriate for the other person to disappear or leave.
It's a fine time of year to let me go
Indicating that it's a suitable time for the speaker to be let go.
Well, you got a way with unmarked boxes
Describing the other person's skill in handling unidentified boxes.
There's something there that you could call your own
Suggesting the presence of something significant in the boxes that could be considered personal.
I just can't find a pleasant way to put it
Expressing difficulty in finding a pleasant way to articulate a certain matter.
So I'll just leave it in the closet and be gone
Deciding to leave a certain matter unresolved and departing.
But it's a fine time of year to do it
Reiterating the appropriateness of the current time of year for certain actions.
Yes, it's a fine time of year to let me know
Requesting clarity or communication from the other person about their intentions.

Now there were times back in the day, babe
Reflecting on past times when the couple faced challenges together.
We'd pull that all together
Recalling the ability to overcome various difficulties as a couple.
Weather every storm that ever came our way
Highlighting the capacity to weather storms in the past.
Oh, but now here you are
Observing the current state where the other person is packing belongings.
You're packing boxes and books and dishes
List of items being packed, indicating a significant life change.
All your wishes coming true for you today
Noting that the other person's wishes are materializing.
Well, it's a fine time of year to do it

Well, it's a fine time of year let me know
