Oh, you know, it's December, so a Decemberists song seems fitting. As usual, the lyrics are a tapestry, woven into allegories with likely deep and significant meaning... but I'm not going to try to break this one down for you. Songmeanings.net has some interesting efforts at deconstruction in the comments... check it out, if you're so inclined.
This one is somewhat reflective and somber, recalling love's labours lost, or something like that...
"And I recall in spring
the perfume that the air would bring
to the indolent town..."
