[Spoken Vocal]
The spring has sprung…
So what are you waiting for?
Get up!
[Verse 1]
Winter held its breath
The ground was cold and still
Now something’s moving underneath
A little life, a little will
Green comes through the cracks
The branches start to sway
The world has found its rhythm
And we’re coming out to play
[Pre-Chorus]
Wake up!
(Wake up!)
Come alive!
(Come alive!)
Feel the change
As we arrive!
[Refrain]
The spring
(Has sprung)
Now sing:
(Bell’s been rung)
[Chorus]
Spring has sprung!
(Spring has sprung!)
Ring that bell!
Spring has sprung!
(Spring has sprung!)
Can’t you tell?
Out of the dark
Into the light
Shake off the night
Feel the delight
[Verse 2]
The snow may linger
On the mountain side
But down below
The rivers rise
The buds are opening
One by one
Leaves are reaching
For the sun
Birds return
(Wings unfurled)
New beginnings
(Into the world)
[Instrumental]
[Electric Guitar Solo: Upbeat Roots-Rock Lead With Hammond Organ, Bell-Like Synth, Bass and Driving Drums]
[Bridge]
Spring …
(Here’s the thing)
[Rap Vocal Break]
Spring!
(Sprung!)
Ring!
(Rung!)
Move!
(Improve!)
Shake off
The frozen groove
Roots down
(Rise up)
Fill the cup
(Drink up)
Life is moving
Don’t get stuck
(Noo… don’t wait on luck)
[Breakdown]
[Music Drops to Acoustic Guitar, Hand Claps and Soft Bell Tones]
The spring…
[Whispered]
Has sprung.
Now sing…
(Come undone)
Sing to sung!
[Soft Response]
Bell’s been rung.
[Final Refrain]
The spring
(Has sprung)
Now sing:
(Bell’s been rung)
[Final Chorus]
Spring has sprung!
(Spring has sprung!)
Ring that bell!
Spring has sprung!
(Spring has sprung!)
Can’t you tell?
Surprise!
(Arise!)
[Outro]
[Instrumental Outro: Full Band With Bright Guitar, Hammond Organ, Bells, Bass and Drums; Gradually Building Into a Celebratory Final Chord]
The spring…
Has sprung!
The bell…
Has rung!
[Spoken, fading]
Now…
Go grow.
