Lyrics Spring - Original London Cast Of The Wind In The Willows

The snows are forgotten
Along with the floods
The branches are decked out
With burgeoning buds

The long night is over
The waiting and yearning
Along with the cuckoos
The warmth is returning

The tree roots are groaning
Deep down in the earth
They sense Mother Nature
Is soon to give birth

One season unites us
Both rabbits and foxes
This is our favorite of all equinoxes

Spring!
Spring!
Fresh as a new
Butterfly wing
Spring!
Let the sun's rays
Color our world
Lengthen our days
Spring!
Finally here
Spring the most joyous
Time of the year!
(Spring!)

We dig and we burrow
We build and we nest
From sunrise to sunset
We work without rest

Our senses are heightened
There's magic occurring
Wherever you turn
Watch the countryside stirring

Drat and bother!
Bother and drat!
Hang spring-cleaning!

Spring (Spring)
Spring (Spring)
Season of hope (Season of hope)
(Birds start to sing) Birds start to sing (Spring) (Birds start to)
Spring (Spring)
Watch the world wake (Spring)
Hedgerow and field (Hedgerow and field)
River and lake (River and lake)
(Spring) Spring (With you all I cheer)
(Spring)
Spring the most joyous time of the year!
Spring the most joyous (Joyous)
Time (Time)
