The Sundial - Song lyrics

All suddenly the wind comes soft And Spring is here again; And the hawthorn quickens with buds of green And my heart with buds of pain My heart all Winter lay so numb The earth so dead and frore That I never thought the Spring would come Or my heart wake any more But Winter's broken and earth has woken And the small birds cry again; And the hawthorn hedge puts forth its buds And my heart puts forth its pain
