[Verse 1] I’ve worn this gray too long Counting rain on my sleeve But I can hear the thaw In the way the branches breathe My boots are tired of frost My heart wants a little spin One small green promise And the whole day turns to grin [Pre-Chorus] Come on, open the gate Let the cold step aside I’ve been waiting all season For the color to arrive [Chorus] Spring, spring, come near I’ve been saving up cheer First fresh bud, come through First fresh love, I need you Spring, spring, shine bright Turn the long dark into light Take my hand, let me run Spring is renewal and fun [Verse 2] I want the street to smell Like soil after rain A little pink on the tree A little joy in my name I want a brand-new laugh That I can wear all day And every old ache To loosen and drift away [Pre-Chorus] Come on, open the gate Let the cold step aside I’ve been waiting all season For the color to arrive [Chorus] Spring, spring, come near I’ve been saving up cheer First fresh bud, come through First fresh love, I need you Spring, spring, shine bright Turn the long dark into light Take my hand, let me run Spring is renewal and fun [Bridge] If winter had a lesson I learned it by heart Even buried roots Still reach for the start So give me that first green That first yes in the air I’ll meet you in bloom I’ll be right there [Chorus] Spring, spring, come near I’ve been saving up cheer First fresh bud, come through First fresh love, I need you Spring, spring, shine bright Turn the long dark into light Take my hand, let me run Spring is renewal and fun
