Faces in Spring

[Verse 1] I stride through spring, coffee warm, street lamps blinking bright A British grin in the glass, I cue the tempo right The city wakes in colour, petals on the pavement glow Each face a fresh page, a tale only I will know [Pre-Chorus] I listen with ink in my hand, to stories in the crowd Every glance a spark, every voice a chorus loud [Chorus] We are alive when we create, catching what’s true In every face a colour, in every heartbeat too Hands trace the day with wonder, we’re learning as we go Connection is the chorus that carries us home [Verse 2] I map the crowd with a painter’s eye, a quick refrain I weigh a stranger’s sigh against a laugh in the rain Spring unfurls like a chorus on a bustling street I hear a hundred stories, every cadence bittersweet [Pre-Chorus] I breathe in the moment, let the colours bloom Among the faces I find a shared room [Chorus] We are alive when we create, catching what’s true In every face a colour, in every heartbeat too Hands trace the day with wonder, we’re learning as we go Connection is the chorus that carries us home [Bridge] In the pause between streets and sky, I feel my spark align Where strangers meet and swap a nod, a memory redefined Art becomes a tether, sturdy as rope and light We sculpt belonging from the day and night [Chorus] We are alive when we create, catching what’s true In every face a colour, in every heartbeat too Hands trace the day with wonder, we’re learning as we go Connection is the chorus that carries us home [Outro] Keep walking, keep painting, the spring stays in our eyes
