Spring Awakening

Track #3 of The Child in You

Bright and happy, this is Kharlie’s favorite song on the album.

CHORUS:
Happy springtime
Happy springtime
All of nature is waking up
The robins and the daffodils
Even the whippoorwills
Fill the morning air with song

It’s a new day
Skies of blue day
Especially for you
A gift from God
What will you do
with this gift you’ve been given?
Do what the birds do
Fill it up with song
Just do what the birds do
Fill it up with song

STANZA 1:
All the flowers that blossom in the springtime
have waited all winter long
Birds fly north as the buds burst forth
preparing for the vernal splendor
And as the season progresses
changes are happening
Spring is unfolding
before our eyes and ears and noses too

STANZA 2:
The fragrance of the lilacs
and the meadowlark’s sweet song
are a part of Nature’s symphony
filling all the senses with its wonders
Then the thunder and lightning
Rain falling from the sky
Plants will grow very high
providing food for all the creatures of the earth

Repeat CHORUS

(Backup parts, at the end)
Happy springtime
Happy springtime
Happy springtime
Earth is waking up
