lyrics

I can feel that springtime is coming
Soft and soaking anew
There will be a big change this morning
Are you feeling it, too?

Outside the birds have gathered
They watch, wing to wing
They sing, shrill and clear
Where once the ice reigned silent
The voices of many are cutting the air

Yesterday gray winter was looming
A blanket smothered green grass
Look around, a renaissance is blooming
The world is changing so fast

Outside the trees are speaking
They rock, limb to limb
Their roots strong and deep
Despite the violent tempest
They'll never be toppled, steady as one

Come time to leave the nest
And test your wings
Up high there is a clearer world to see
Let the movement catch your eye, and dive

Raiding rats once stalked our roost
But now we've grown talons, and they'll be the prey
They sense your shadow's presence
Driving them under
Under the ground

I can feel that springtime is here
There's color all around
The skies are filled with sound
It's here
