[Verse 1]
F G Am C
Crossing by the bridge sitting high
F G Am
Scattered through the clouds, peeking out was the blue sky
F G Am C
Nothing but the sweltering heat
F G Am
So I'm waiting here for any sign of a breeze
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Dm C F
And in the shade of the trees
Dm C F
It softly tickles my cheek
F G C
The falling blossoms above are all I can see
[Chorus 1]
F G C G Am
We're floating gently now, breathless as we flutter down
F G Am
I can't bear to lose this view
F G C G Am
Today the past will catch up to us at last
F G Am
I pray the wind picks up soon
F G C Am
That's why we're speechless now, words are taken from our mouths
F G Am
I can't bear to part from you
F G Am
Simply falling from sun-covered skies
Dm G C
Spring is storming now, petals flying high
F G Am C
F G Am
F G Am C
F G Am
[Verse 2]
F G Am C
Meeting up again, our usual place
F G Am
Visiting the flowers alone on this warm day
F G Am C
Where's the scent of spring I hold oh so dear?
F G Am
Wonder if the summer’s returning this year...
F G Am C
Crossing by the bridge sitting high
F G Am
Just beyond the road, peeking out was your bright smile
F G Am C
Wondering how long is left 'til it's gone
F G Am
Just how many springs can we both look upon?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Dm c F
From hills rolled over the stream
Dm C F
And in the shade of the trees
F G C
As always, blooming so sweet, the spring covers me with flowers
[Chorus 2]
F G C G Am
Floating now, breathless as we flutter down
F G Am
I can't bear to lose this view
F G C G Am
There's no mistaking how this storm of flowers blown about
F G Am
Is really the Spring Thief we knew
F G C Am
The wind is blowing now. Time is flowing all around
F G Am
I can't bear to lift my shoes
F G Am
Peeking in from the petals, the sky
Dm G C
Still the storm goes on, petals flying high
F G Am C
F G Am
F G Am C
F G Am
[Bridge[
Dm C F
Today I'll meet up with you
Dm C F
Enjoy the shade in the blue
Dm C F
With sighs of worrying too
Dm C F
The flowers no longer bloom
Dm C F
Again I'll meet up with you
Dm C F
The spring’s departing too soon
F G C
The little time we have left is trickling to rest
[Chorus 3]
F G C Am
Filled with love, just plain words won’t be enough
F G Am
It’s too much to rhyme this tune
F G C G Am
About this blooming spring, without the words for everything
F G Am
I hope this song reaches you
F G C Am
We're floating gently now, words are taken from our mouths
F G Am
I can't bear to lose this view
F G Am
Just the two of us, spring-covered eyes
Dm G C
Keep on storming now, petals flying high
[Outro]
F G C Am
Just a handful of flowers to go
F G Am
Keeping count of the flowers that go
F G C Am
F G Am
F G C Am F G Am
Only two little flowers to go
F G C Am F G Am
Only one single flower to go
F G Am
Only leaves, bare of flowers are shown
Dm G C
Still so much to say, spring has blown away
