Blossoms Under Glass

[Verse 1]
You pin each petal to the calendar page
Tell the warm wind, “Wait your turn”
The garden’s wearing its Sunday best
While the peaches hang green and learn

[Pre-Chorus]
You count the buds like borrowed gold
And keep the gate on a chain
But every little bloom you save
Is asking for the rain

[Chorus]
Stay, stay, spring—don’t turn the page
You keep the blossoms under glass
Stay, stay, spring—hold back the days
But summer’s tapping through the grass
One-two, skip—your careful heart says “wait”
One-two, skip—the fruit won’t hesitate
You clutch each flower till the colors drain
Then call it love when the season stays the same

[Verse 2]
You dress the roses in tiny coats
And scold the bees for moving on
The clock wears petals over its face
You swear the year has simply paused

[Pre-Chorus]
You count the buds like borrowed gold
And keep the gate on a chain
But every little bloom you save
Is asking for the rain

[Chorus]
Stay, stay, spring—don’t turn the page
You keep the blossoms under glass
Stay, stay, spring—hold back the days
But summer’s tapping through the grass
One-two, skip—your careful heart says “wait”
One-two, skip—the fruit won’t hesitate
You clutch each flower till the colors drain
Then call it love when the season stays the same

[Bridge]
A blossom isn’t happier pressed
Between the dates you wouldn’t cross
The branch can bend and still be blessed
A little change is not a loss

[Final Chorus]
Stay, stay, spring—don’t turn the page
You keep the blossoms under glass
Stay, stay, spring—now let the days
Bring all the sweetness they can pass
One-two, skip—your careful heart says “wait”
One-two, skip—the fruit won’t hesitate
You can love the bloom and let it wane
The year keeps turning; let it change

[Outro]
Let it change
Let it change
