Lyrics
Spring's again upon us, snow's melting high above
Water weaving cascades down to the streams below
Waking all the fishes from their sleepy winter dreams
They dart between the eddies and the flows
It's time to get a move on, time to catch the breeze
Time to raise your spirits to the moment
Time to raise your head again and hear the robin's song
Spring has come, to take us along
Spring has come, to take us along
Snowbells are emerging from the frozen winter soil
Their petals are a sign of the awakening
Sunlight getting warmer, daylight getting long
No more thoughts of gloom or of forsakening
It's time to get a move on, time to catch the breeze
Time to raise your spirits to the moment
Time to raise your head again and hear the robin's song
Spring has come, to take us along
Spring has come, to take us along
short instrumental break
You don't have to tell me how hard this winter's been
I thought of heading south to do some traveling
At times I'd look outside my window and see nothing there
The darkness and the lonely nights, unraveling
(But now) it's time to get a move on, time to catch the breeze
Time to raise your spirits to the moment
Time to raise your head again and hear the robin's song
Spring has come, to take us along
Spring has come, to take us along
