Spring-Summer

[Instrumental Intro: Bright Acoustic Guitar, Light Drums, Handclaps, Bass Groove]

[Verse 1]
Sunlight stretching through the trees
Soft warm air and a gentle breeze
Windows open, music loud
Shaking off that winter cloud
(Sing it out loud!)

Sidewalk cracks with dandelions
Kids outside just riding on
Every color coming through
Like the world feels something new
(Find the love you knew)

[Pre-Chorus]
Long nights finally fade away
Cold gray skies turn into day
Every little thing feels right
Stepping back into the light

[Chorus]
It’s that time of season
(Don’t need a reason)
Got over the winter blues
(Happy to hear the good news)
Into spring-summer
(No, no longer a bummer)
Feel it in everything we do
(All brand new)

[Instrumental Break: Whistling Melody, Guitar Picking]

[Verse 2]
Porch lights glowing after dusk
Fireflies and that summer musk
Old songs playing down the street
Barefoot dancing in the heat
(Dancing to the beat)

Ice cream dripping, laughing loud
No more hiding in a crowd
Every moment feels like gold
Simple stories being told
(Feeling young not growing old)

[Pre-Chorus]
Time slows down but moves so fast
Trying hard to make it last
Every second sings a tune
Underneath a rising moon

[Chorus]
It’s that time of season
(Don’t need a reason)
Got over the winter blues
(Happy to hear the good news)
Into spring-summer
(No, no longer a bummer)
Every sky a brighter blue
(Nothing to lose)

[Bridge]
Maybe it’s the way we change
Or maybe nothing stays the same
But after every frozen night
Comes a flood of warmth and light

[Instrumental Bridge: Laid-back Guitar Solo, Soft Organ Pads]

[Final Chorus]
It’s that time of season
(Don’t need a reason)
Got over the winter blues
(Happy to hear the good news)
Into spring-summer
(No, no longer a bummer)
Hold on to the feeling too
(It’s me and you)

[Outro]
[Acoustic Guitar Fades, Light Breeze Sound]

Into spring-summer
No, no longer a bummer
Into spring-summer
Feels like coming back to life
(And arrive alive)
