It Might as Well Be Spring
Embracing Restlessness and Yearning: "It Might as Well Be Spring" Meaning Unveiled
Lyrics
I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm
I feel unsettled and agitated like a willow tree swaying vigorously in a storm.
I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string
I'm nervous and jittery, comparable to a puppet controlled by strings.
I'd say that I had spring fever
I believe I have symptoms similar to spring fever, a restlessness and excitement.
But I know it isn't spring
Despite feeling like it's spring, I acknowledge that it's not actually the spring season.
I am starry-eyed and vaguely discontented
I'm full of dreams and a vague sense of dissatisfaction or longing.
Like a nightingale without a song to sing
I feel like a nightingale that can't find a song to express itself.
Oh, why should I have Spring fever
Why do I experience this spring-like restlessness when it's not spring?
When it isn't even spring?
Questioning why I'm feeling this way when the season doesn't match the symptoms.
I keep wishing I were somewhere else
I constantly desire to be in a different place.
Walking down a strange new street
Imagining myself walking in an unfamiliar location.
Hearing words that I have never heard
Hoping to hear new words or experiences from someone I haven't met yet.
From a girl I've yet to meet
Anticipating interactions with a girl I haven't encountered before.
I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams
I'm occupied with creating fantasies or daydreams, much like a spider weaving a web.
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing
Feeling lightheaded and excited like a baby on a swing.
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud or a robin on the wing
I haven't witnessed typical signs of spring like flowers or birds.
But I feel so gay in a melancholy way
I feel joyful in a somewhat sad or wistful manner.
That it might as well be spring
My emotions resemble those of spring, even though it's not the actual season.
It might as well be spring
My feelings are so strong that it seems as if it's spring, despite it not being so.
