[00:18.98]Springtime in the country
[00:24.41]Each time I'm shocked by the light
[00:29.60]The world lyin' fallow and you are apart from me
[00:35.20]Everythin' in my vision is movement and life
[00:40.53]Riverboat wheelbarrow wildflower and barley
[00:47.54]Springtime in the country
[00:52.91]I can smell summer on its breath
[00:58.34]Low and harrowed lie the fields
[01:01.44]And the heart of me
[01:03.22]Everythin' in my vision departure and death
[01:08.96]Riverboat wheelbarrow wildflower and barley
[01:14.90]The healers
[01:15.64]This year I swear it will be buried in actions
[01:19.81]Are healin'
[01:21.03]This year I swear it will be buried in words
[01:25.02]The diggers are diggin' the earth
[01:27.75]Some close to the surface some close to the casket
[01:31.21]I feel as useful as dirt put my body to work
[01:37.95]Mm
[01:40.35]Oh oh oh
[01:41.63]Mm
[01:41.94]Oh oh oh
[01:44.23]Springtime in the city
[01:49.92]The canal banks are empty again
[01:54.57]The grass cryin' out to be heated by bodies
[02:00.26]The streets for the laughter of young women and men
[02:06.17]Canal boat and trolley wildflower and barley
[02:12.01]The healers
[02:12.83]This year I swear it will be buried in actions
[02:17.09]Are healin'
[02:18.22]This year I swear it will be buried in words
[02:22.17]The diggers are diggin' the earth
[02:25.02]Some close to the surface some close to the casket
[02:27.87]I feel as useful as dirt unreal unearth
[02:34.72]The healers
[02:35.39]This year I swear it will be buried in actions
[02:39.91]Are healin'
[02:40.99]This year I swear it will be buried in words
[02:45.07]The diggers are diggin' the earth
[02:47.68]Some close to the surface some close to the casket
[02:51.28]I feel as useful as dirt put my body to work
[02:57.87]Mm
[02:58.84]Oh oh oh
[03:00.56]Mm
[03:00.95]Oh oh oh
[03:04.49]Springtime from my window
[03:09.92]Another month has not much longer now
[03:14.75]The sun hesitates more on each evening's darkenin'
[03:20.97]Would all things God allows remain above ground
[03:27.50]Like grief and sweet memory wildflower and barley

Springtime in the country
Each time I'm shocked by the light
The world lyin' fallow and you are apart from me
Everythin' in my vision is movement and life
Riverboat wheelbarrow wildflower and barley
Springtime in the country
I can smell summer on its breath
Low and harrowed lie the fields
And the heart of me
Everythin' in my vision departure and death
Riverboat wheelbarrow wildflower and barley
The healers
This year I swear it will be buried in actions
Are healin'
This year I swear it will be buried in words
The diggers are diggin' the earth
Some close to the surface some close to the casket
I feel as useful as dirt put my body to work
Mm
Oh oh oh
Mm
Oh oh oh
Springtime in the city
The canal banks are empty again
The grass cryin' out to be heated by bodies
The streets for the laughter of young women and men
Canal boat and trolley wildflower and barley
The healers
This year I swear it will be buried in actions
Are healin'
This year I swear it will be buried in words
The diggers are diggin' the earth
Some close to the surface some close to the casket
I feel as useful as dirt unreal unearth
The healers
This year I swear it will be buried in actions
Are healin'
This year I swear it will be buried in words
The diggers are diggin' the earth
Some close to the surface some close to the casket
I feel as useful as dirt put my body to work
Mm
Oh oh oh
Mm
Oh oh oh
Springtime from my window
Another month has not much longer now
The sun hesitates more on each evening's darkenin'
Would all things God allows remain above ground
Like grief and sweet memory wildflower and barley
