Robin Jackson - The Spring lyrics

Once the streets were paved with gold A precious world oh to behold And from the dusty ground You evoked the sound Caused flowers too unfold When the summers turned to fall You were with us through it all A ring upon the bell That echoed through the shell Of winter's call Now that you're away I feel you every day Some days were hard to win We never knew what fate would spin You filled my cup with grace And held a steady face When the ice grew thin When the branches began to crack We knew there was no looking back Soon all our hopes and dreams Were tearing at the seams Light fading into black You told us to let go The current pulls below Like sunlight on the snow Into the silent river you will flow And we'll find you in the water, I know There was a time when I never Thought that you would leave my side And through the shadows 
you would find the way And even though you held on tight I can see your fading light Is stronger now that you‘ve gone away Tangled roots and history Shadows deep within the tree Shackles from the past Broken way at last Found peace eternally When Azrael unfolds her wings For you, a gateway to the spring That bubbles from the ground Once a fearful sound now Taught us words to sing You told us to let go The current pulls below Like sunlight on the snow Into the silent river you will flow And we'll find you in the water, I know
