It Might as Well Be Spring
Embracing Unseasonal Yearning
Lyrics
I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm
I feel unsettled and agitated, similar to a willow tree in a strong wind.
I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string
I'm nervous and jittery, like a puppet being manipulated on a string.
I'd say that I had spring fever
I might attribute my feelings to spring fever, but I'm aware it's not actually spring.
But I know it isn't spring
Despite the similarities to spring fever, the current season is not spring.
I am starry-eyed and vaguely discontented
I am dreamy and somewhat dissatisfied, resembling a nightingale without a song.
Like a nightingale without a song to sing
Similar to a nightingale, I lack a specific purpose or inspiration to express myself.
Oh, why should I have Spring fever
Questioning why I experience spring fever when the actual season is not spring.
When it isn't even spring?
Expressing the paradox of feeling spring fever when it's not the appropriate season.
I keep wishing I were somewhere else
Desiring to be in a different place, away from the current situation.
Walking down a strange new street
Imagining walking in an unfamiliar location, seeking a change of scenery.
Hearing words that I have never heard
Hoping to hear new and unfamiliar words, possibly from someone I haven't met.
From a girl I've yet to meet
Anticipating encountering a girl and hearing words from her that I've never heard before.
I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams
Engaged in creative and imaginative thoughts, like a spider spinning daydreams.
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing
Feeling lightheaded and carefree, similar to a baby on a swing.
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud or a robin on the wing
Despite not observing signs of spring like flowers or birds, I feel joyful in a melancholic way.
But I feel so gay in a melancholy way
Experiencing a sense of happiness tinged with sadness or contemplation.
That it might as well be spring
Expressing that the emotional state is so pronounced that it might as well be considered spring.
It might as well be spring
Affirming once again that the emotional experience closely resembles the feelings associated with spring.
