Intro

 [ ] - x2

Verses

Spring fever, pure ether, scent is in your hair

 Makes me want to shout your name

Bells ringing, birds singing, down the country lane

 Summoning you to the game

Slow cricket, old wicket, on the village green

 See the scene through cups of tea

So English, distinguished, hands upon their knees

 Grumbling like bumble bees

/ x2

One dozen bees buzzing, around a golden hive

 Watch them take a dive and see

Sweet honey, so sunny, glistens in the bowl

 Shining out it's 'glory be'

The vicar, skips quicker, cassocks in the wind

 'I have never sinned' says he

Cucumber, slips under, nose above his chin

 Followed by his wife's sloe gin

/ x4

Solo

ends with D#m Bb

Dancer creating on the glad befriending stage

(- When the time is)

Whirling burning life on all she meets

(- Mirror the dancing

Over the land and through)

 The airs become the graces that are hidden in your face

 Surrender do do it they knew it

 The treason of her kiss

We advance relating on your mad beguiling song

(- When the time is)

Turning yearning wife of all the years

(- Years are becoming

Colder and longer now)

 But please remember that no time is long

Chorus

Spring is the dancer the lover of men

She will sing for you over and over again

 Surrender, befriend her and fight to the end

If the rhyme is your treason

 She must be your friend

Chorus2

[the same as the first one] ^ ^ ^

Bridge2

Winter has spoken on it's sad untimely drum

(- When the call is)

Swirling twirling strife to all it sees

(- Season of ice

Will tell you the price it bears)

 The field that once was open is now hidden from your view

 Pretender, you did it, you hid it

 The crowning of the king

Fight another winter and you'll live another spring

(- When the call is)

Swirling twirling death is where he stands

(- Staggers the growth

And stammers the oath)

 He swears he'll take the dancer by the hand

Chorus3

Spring is the dancer the lover of men

She will sing for you over and over again

 Surrender, befriend her and fight to the end

If the rhyme is your treason

 She must be your friend

 The king is returning the queen is to die

In a riot of colour she falls from the sky

 The kingdom is dancing to sad lullabies

She has no real answers, she just passes by

x2

 If the spring is the sun
