about

The coming of spring after a long cold winter.

lyrics

For the first time in a long, long time
I woke with the dawn
Stepped outside to greet the day
As the dew covered the lawn

Took a walk down the street as the world came alive
And burst into song
Try to keep up with the rhythm and rhyme
As I sing along

As I sing with the birds
Aloft on the breeze
As I sing with the love I have for you burning in me


As the day it got older and gray and
The morning chorus had ceased
The melody fled and left in my head
A moment of blistering peace

That moment of clarity fraught with austerity
Brought me to my knees
For the first time in a long, long time
My heart began to sing

And fly through the air with the greatest of ease
With the courage and grace of the flying trapeze and
Sing for the world
And what I wish it to be
For the love that's growing inside of you
And burning in me
