Springtime, I'm out here in your morning breezes.
And I smell such nectar in your air.
But right now the nectar only teases,
Cause springtime should be to share.
So bold are you, blue sky
And so alive are you, air
Bold and alive am I
But I'm teased now by such a need to share.
But I want you to tease me.
I want you to tease me.
Because it has my heart throbbing so hard and free.
And tease more, tease more
Because my heart understands what it was put here for.
My heart was put here to feel this kind of teasing.
My heart was put here to need to share.
So I'm glad I'm teased by the breeze,
I'm glad I'm teased by the trees,
I'm glad I'm teased by this need to share.
Well, you've got bridges and rivers and tunnels too.
Look here, springtime, I admit that I sure need you.
But can't you feel my heart pounding so hard and free?
It works both ways now, you need me.
I'm so loving', I'm so lovin', I'm so lovin', you must feel my heart skipping and a-throbbin'
I am so alive now, so alive now, I'm so lovin',
I love each animule out here kissin' and a-huggin'
I feel so alive, so alive, so alive,
I feel each bee comin' out of their hive.
I'm so alive, so alive, so lovin'
The world must feel my heart poundin' cause it's throbbin' and it's throbbin' and it's throbbin'.
I said, springtime morning breezes
You got the nectar in your air
But right now the nectar just teases
'Cause springtime is put here to share
And so bold are you, blue sky
So alive are you, air
Bold and alive am I
But I'm teased by the need to share
So please tease me, though, I want you to tease me.
You know, you got my heart throbbin so hard, so free
Tease more, tease more
My heart will know what it was put here for
Put here to feel thy teasing
My heart was put here to have to share
So I'm glad I'm teased by the breeze
And I'm glad to be teased by the trees
I'm even glad to be teased by this need to share.
