Hold On To The Spring Lyrics

Frost is at the door

December days are chilling

Enough to slow the war

So January does the killing

The sun is arcing round

The constellations roll

And stirring in the ground

And somewhere in the soul

Is a pulse that churns

With a steady beat

Until the green returns

And winter's in retreat

Hold on to the spring

Keep it close beside you

Bitter is the sting

In the winter's tail

Hold on to the spring

Use its light to guide you

And should the seasons fail

Hold the spring inside you

February shows

A beacon in the distance

And though it comes and goes

Keep faith in its existence

The sun is arcing round

The constellations roll

And stirring in the ground

And somewhere in the soul

Is a pulse that churns

With a steady beat

Until the green returns

And winter's in retreat

Hold on to the spring

Keep it close beside you

Bitter is the sting

In this winter's tail

Hold on to the spring

Use its light to guide you

And should the seasons fail

And darkness still prevail

Hold the spring inside you
