Prateek - Springtime Lyrics

And then springtime was arriving and the clouds were white instead of gray
Snow ran down into the gutters and the crocuses woke up to start the day
And I couldn't help but smile even as my eyes were growing wet
Turn my face to the horizon trying to slow the beating in my chest

So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Gimme smiles, gimme laughter in a jar I can keep on my window sill
Cause when the world starts getting colder, I'll feel a decade older you know I will
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill

Was it what my parents taught me? Was it just how I was born?
Cause I'm always counting all the lines around my eyes against the things I haven't done
And every pebble on the sidewalk, every blade of grass that tickled my bare toes
Is gone, is always gone away to someplace I can't go

So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
Gimme smiles, gimme laughter in a jar I can keep on my window sill
Cause when the world starts getting colder, I'll feel a decade older you know I will
So give me blue skies in a bottle and give me sunshine in a pill
