Lyrics:

Another day, nothing much to say
When the sun shows up and it's all the same
You claim to keep it in your frame
That the world's more bright when the seasons change
(But I feel that burning in my eyes)
When the leaves grow back neath a bright blue sky
(So I keep on searching through my mind)
For the reason why I can't help but cry

Is it all for a show?
In the golden hour, you seem to know no fear
Is it really true?
That I just can't feel the same as—

When spring comes
The world is blooming again
(Yet my tears never seem to end)
When spring comes
We watch the flowers ascend
(And it kills me to breathe it in)
You seem to have an easy time with this
Why am I left dry when you chase your bliss?
Oh, it's always such an easy time for you
When I see you smile, can I feel that too?

Another day
(Nothing much to say)
I lay low when you walk this way
And stay so very far away
'Cause the spring has come and I'm so afraid
(Not a care in your mind)
Do you think of me when I'm out of sight
(Can I stay by your side)
'Cause you're a gentle warmth in the blackest night

Is it all in my head?
When I try too hard, I only feel regret
Do you have a clue
How desperately I love—

When spring comes
The world is blooming again
(Yet my tears never seem to end)
When spring comes
We take the air for a spin
(And it kills me to breathe it in)
You always have an easy time outside
But I cough and sneeze while your eyes stay dry
Oh, why is it such an easy time for you?
When the springtime comes and my heart turns blue

When I've naught but my pride
You can still look past and stay right by my side
Is it really true?
That you still can find a reason—

When spring comes
The world is blooming again
(And my tears finally find their end)
When spring comes
I feel my heart on the mend
(And it holds through the springtime's end)
My allergies would make me loathe this sky
But it's not so bad when you dry my eyes
Oh, and though it's easy, you can help me too
You're the medicine for a heartbeat true
