Springtime
|
|
Springtime, I'm out here in your morning breezes.
|
And I smell such nectar in your air.
|
But right now the nectar only teases,
|
Cause springtime should be to share.
|
So bold are you, blue sky
|
And so alive are you, air
|
Bold and alive am I
|
But I'm teased now by such a need to share.
|
But I want you to tease me.
|
I want you to tease me.
|
Because it has my heart throbbing so hard and free.
|
And tease more, tease more
|
Because my heart understands what it was put here for.
|
My heart was put here to feel this kind of teasing.
|
My heart was put here to need to share.
|
So I'm glad I'm teased by the breeze,
|
I'm glad I'm teased by the trees,
|
I'm glad I'm teased by this need to share.
|
|
Well, you've got bridges and rivers and tunnels too.
|
Look here, springtime, I admit that I sure need you.
|
But can't you feel my heart pounding so hard and free?
|
It works both ways now, you need me.
|
I'm so loving', I'm so lovin', I'm so lovin', you must feel my heart skipping and a-throbbin'
|
I am so alive now, so alive now, I'm so lovin',
|
I love each animule out here kissin' and a-huggin'
|
I feel so alive, so alive, so alive,
|
I feel each bee comin' out of their hive.
|
I'm so alive, so alive, so lovin'
|
The world must feel my heart poundin' cause it's throbbin' and it's throbbin' and it's throbbin'.
|
|
I said, springtime morning breezes
|
You got the nectar in your air
|
But right now the nectar just teases
|
'Cause springtime is put here to share
|
And so bold are you, blue sky
|
So alive are you, air
|
Bold and alive am I
|
But I'm teased by the need to share
|
So please tease me, though, I want you to tease me.
|
You know, you got my heart throbbin so hard, so free
|
Tease more, tease more
|
My heart will know what it was put here for
|
Put here to feel thy teasing
|
My heart was put here to have to share
|
So I'm glad I'm teased by the breeze
|
And I'm glad to be teased by the trees
|
I'm even glad to be teased by this need to share.
