about

Written in the spring following Ontario's first exposure to the long and lingering deep freeze of a polar vortex winter.

lyrics

A bud, a brook, a bee,
A dream of heaven to me.
A brandished yellow-green,
A branch where winter had been.
Cast off your lonesome chill,
And warm to a wonderful thrill.
Spring such a welcome thing,
Spring has a lovely ring.

A tune, a melody,
A hum in sweet harmony
Among the birds, the trees,
A song in joyous reprise.
How grand to stand and hear
The world sing at this time of year.
This spring thing,
It's swinging,
Spring has a lovely ring.

A bud, a brook, a bee,
A dream of heaven to me.
A brandished yellow-green,
A branch where winter had been.
Cast off your lonesome chill,
And warm to a wonderful thrill.
Spring such a welcome thing,
Spring has a lovely ring.

A tune, a melody,
A hum in sweet harmony
Among the birds, the trees,
A song in joyous reprise.
How grand to stand and hear
The world sing at this time of year.
This spring thing,
It's swinging,
Spring has a lovely ring.
Spring has a lovely ring.
Spring has a lovely ring.
