spring is coming

we planted the seed while the tears of our grief soaked the ground

the sky lost its sun

and the world lost its green to lifeless brown

now the chilling wind has turned the earth hard as stone

and silently seed rise beneath ice and snow

and my heart's heavy now

but i'm not letting go of this hope i have that tells me

spring is coming

spring is coming

and all we've been hoping and longing for soon will appear

spring is coming

spring is coming

it won't be long now

it's just about here

hear the birds start to sing

feel the life in the breeze

watch the ice melt away

the kids are coming out to play

feel the sun on your skin

growing strong and warm again

watch the ground: there's something moving

something is breaking through

new life is breaking through

spring is coming

spring is coming

and all we've been hoping and longing for soon will appear

spring is coming

spring is coming

and it won't be long now

it's just about here

spring is coming

spring is coming

and all we've been hoping and longing for soon will appear

spring is coming

spring is coming

it won't be long now

it's just about here
