Early Spring
It's been ages since I felt the rain
That long winter nearly drove me insane
I see fog on the mountain tops
Way up high in the sky between here and where heaven stops
Next thing I know a few drops fall on my face
Washing me away to a better place
All I needed was some birds to sing
Then I would have surely known it is early spring
Oh my! It's really started coming down
Soaking me from my toes to just beyond my brow
I should have been careful what I wished for
It was only the beggining, there will be more and more
Tempestuous wind blows upon me
All alone in the storm there I be
The lightning strikes were bold and the thunder was loud
It was raining cats and dogs, God was really showing off now
When will it stop? There was no end in sight
Drop after drop on into the night
I tried to close my eyes but I couldn't sleep a wink
Those gray skies really made me think
The conclusion I came to was spring is surely here
There was no confusion, only bliss and cheer
Then I closed my eyes
I had dreams of flowers and blue skies
I slept for hours and hours, I did not want to wake
Until the sun rose with daybreak
The birds began to sing
I waited all winter for this, I waited for spring
