With a spring in your step, and a spring in your mood
The winter is over, it does so somewhat intrude.
The winter has gone now, no more black or grey;
The colours are returning, from their long holiday.

The sky becomes blue, the fields return to green
The winter just came and stole them; It is so; cruel and mean!
There is a flow to the river again, after the long and bitter freeze
The bluebells are swaying in the mild springtime breeze.

There is red, pink and yellow, quite easy on the eye;
Just take in the scenery ' feel that natural high;
All your senses come alive, you can smell the flowers too;
Spring is all around us, there is new life coming through.

No more hibernating, no more hiding away;
The colours are so vivid, they're so beautiful and, so gay.
There is apmosphere in everyway, you can hear the song thrush 'sing'
Such wonderful exuberance, the energy of spring.
