Winter's On The Wing

Winter's on the wing
Here's a fine spring morn
Comin' clear through the night
Come the may, i say
Winter's taking flight
Sweepin' dark cold air
Out to sea, spring is born
Comes the day, I say.

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 now the sun is climbin' high
Riding fast, on fire
Glaring down thorugh the gloom
Gone the gray, I say
The sun spells the doom
Of the winter's reign
Ice and chill must retire
Come the May, I say.

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 witner walls
See, see now it's starting.

And now the mist is liftin' high
Leavin' bright, blue air
Rollin' clear cross the moor
Come the May, I say
The storm'll soon be by
Leavin' clear blue sky
Soon the sun will shine
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.
