Promise of Spring

[Verse 1]
You showed up when you said you would
Green as a measure of new breath
Snaking vein of invisible ink
A promise of spring, when the light grew

[Verse 2]
And I grew too, becoming again
A slip, a shot, a scion
You arrived as a faun from the bramble
Promise of spring, in a new light

[Chorus]
Shot spring
Shot spring

[Verse 3]
Slipping in on the floor of the valley
Slow advance to the vernal
Blooming hands in rushes of fire
From a dream to a new call

[Verse 4]
Lines collapsing and expanding
We were in sharper relief
A shot in the dark, as a faun from the bramble
Promise of spring, coming back to life

[Chorus]
Shot spring
Shot spring

[Outro]
A promise of spring, a promise of spring
A promise of spring, a promise of spring
