lyrics

Lay it on me, say it sweetly
Tell me more my smitten friend, how the springtime picks you up again

January, my body is buried
And it takes a thousand I love yous before I come back up again

Skies are dancing new light casting through
springtime dawning birds are yawning,
Calling out through my window pane

Though my eyes are closed I’m only sleeping
And dreaming, dreaming...

Come Ostara , with buds of iris
Winter was a thousand lives
But now my eyes are clear again

Reaching in night begins
The stars whisper to me a name
I speak it and the daylight never fades

And I call her name, And I call her name...
