The Songs of Spring

from Pushing Forward by Wes Weddell & Ailisa Newhall

/

lyrics

The songs of spring will always bring
That newborn feel to everything
The days extend, begin again
And maybe this time will go better

The smoke appears the end of June
It makes the sun look like the moon
A heavy haze, the end of days
We used to hold out for our summers

But the seasons change just like we do
They shed their old skins and they leave us behind
We think of it all as a circle
Maybe it’s better to draw your own line

The rains return with autumn breeze
To wash away anomalies
The leaves descend, we pack it in
Try to steer life back to comfort

And when December’s through the door
You can count on the dark and not much more
Our candles burn, we sing, we yearn,
And hope to skate by on tradition
