Lying in the long long grass
  Blossom on the trees
  Springtime's slipping away my love
  Yeah springtime's slipping away
  When it comes around again
  It will never be the same
  Heaven's slipping away my love
  Yeah heaven's slipping away
  Yeah heaven's slipping away
    Walking through this changing season
  Sorrow spreads its wings
  We can't keep a hold on time
  Just receive what it brings
    Lying in the long long grass
  Clouds are drifting by
  Springtime's slipping away my love
  Yeah springtime's slipping away
  Dreaming in this lost domain
  Which you'll never see again
  Heaven's slipping away my love
  Yeah heaven's slipping away
  Yeah heaven's slipping away
    Walking through this changing season
  Sorrow spreads its wings
  Light a candle in your heart
  Light it to the spring
  Walking through this changing season
  Sorrow spreads its wings
  We cant keep a hold on time
  Just recieve what it will bring
    Mellow evenings in the spring
  Full of warmth and hope
  you are dreaming unaware
  Unaware that you are letting go
    Walking through this changing season
  Sorrow spreads it wings
  We can't keep a hold on time
  Just recieve what it will bring
  Walking through this lonely season
  Sorrow spreads its wings
  Light a candle in your heart
  Light it to the spring
    Springtime's slipping away my love
  Yeah springtime's slipping away
  Heaven's slipping away my love
  Yeah heaven's slipping away.
