the winter is worn and the springtime is born
the city children storm thru the square
pigtailed girls and baby squirrels
in the whole wide world the children share
and this old world is truly their friend
it's gonna take care of their needs
thru the smog comes some god on a velvet wind
to scatter the seeds of spring
trinity chimes echo in my mind
the evening city shines - its gettin' lazy
church bells toll, echo in my soul
and I want you to bear my baby
and this old world is gonna be our friend
it's gonna take care of our dreams
thru the smog comes some god on a velvet wind
to scatter the seeds of spring now
to scatter the seeds of spring
to scatter the seeds of spring
of spring
the city children storm thru the square
pigtailed girls and baby squirrels
in the whole wide world the children share
and this old world is truly their friend
it's gonna take care of their needs
thru the smog comes some god on a velvet wind
to scatter the seeds of spring
trinity chimes echo in my mind
the evening city shines - its gettin' lazy
church bells toll, echo in my soul
and I want you to bear my baby
and this old world is gonna be our friend
it's gonna take care of our dreams
thru the smog comes some god on a velvet wind
to scatter the seeds of spring now
to scatter the seeds of spring
to scatter the seeds of spring
of spring
