[Verse 1] Dawn on the stone steps Yellow dust on your shoes I saw the first daffodils Break through the rain-soaked roots Your hands in the dirt Red nails, green stems You laughed when the wind came up And bent the whole row again [Pre-Chorus] Hold on They’re coming up now Hold on From the dark ground [Chorus] Spring flowers Lift me higher Spring flowers Burn like fire Spring flowers Call your name All this soil Turns to flame [Verse 2] Window box crowded with buds Mint leaves, wet with rain The jasmine leans through the fence Like it knows my lane You tie up the roses With thread from your dress And every little petal Feels like a promise kept [Pre-Chorus] Hold on They’re coming up now Hold on From the dark ground [Chorus] Spring flowers Lift me higher Spring flowers Burn like fire Spring flowers Call your name All this soil Turns to flame [Bridge] Oh, when the cold weeks fold And the bare branches break I hear your barefoot rhythm On the path we make [Final Chorus] Spring flowers Lift me higher Spring flowers Burn like fire Spring flowers Call your name All this soil Turns to flame Spring flowers Stay with me Spring flowers Wild and free
