Winter’s on the Wing
View ArtistLyrics
[MARY, spoken] I don't know anything about the spring. Are you sure it's coming? [DICKON, spoken] Can't you smell it? [MARY, spoken] I smell something nice and fresh and damp. [DICKON, spoken] That's the good, rich earth makin' ready to grow things. [DICKON] Winter's on the wing Soon a fine spring morn's Coming clean through the night Comes the May, I say Winter's takin' flight Sweeping dark cold air Out to sea, spring is born Comes the day, say I And you'll be here to see it Stand and breathe it all the day Stoop and feel it, stop and hear it Spring, I say And soon the sun is climbing high Rising fast, on fire Glaring down through the gloom Gone the grey, I say The sun spells the doom Of the winter's reign Ice and chill must retire Comes the May, say I And you'll be here to see it Stand and breathe it all the day Stoop and feel it, stop and hear it Spring, I say I say be gone, ye howling gales Be off, ye frosty morns All ye solid streams begin to thaw Melt, ye waterfalls Part, ye frozen winter walls See, see now it's startin' And now the mist is lifting high Leaving bright blue air Rolling clear 'cross the moor Comes the May, I say The storm'll soon be by Leaving clear blue sky Soon the sun will shine Comes the May, say I And you'll be here to see it Oh, stand and breathe it all the day Stoop and feel it, stop [MARY] And hear it [DICKON] Spring And we'll be here to see it Oh, stand and breathe it all the day Stoop and feel it, stop and hear it Spring, I say
