Why Spring Ain't Here - Michael Franks

Never knew the point of No Return til I crossed it

Never knew there could be Love Supreme til I lost it

Playing solo seemed ultra-cool — now it’s clear

Our mid-winter goodbye must be why

Spring ain’t here

Buds unopening refuse to bloom in low pressure

I feel like the man who lost the map to his treasure

Will the notes that I sing ever stop turning blue?

I’m unsprung like the Spring i the absence of you

Increasingly, I start to see

Why Spring ain’t here

A wiser man, I understand

Why Spring ain’t here

Wintertime just won’t break, like the calendar’s rusted

Where is April and May, is the equinox busted?

My mistakes was in letting you disappear

Our French film-like goodbye must be why

Spring ain’t here

Increasingly, I start to see why

Spring ain’t here

I can’t demote my overcoat cause

Spring Ain’t here

I still am seem in L.L.Bean cause

Spring ain’t here

Turn up the song and don’t be long…

Make Spring be here
