Passion of the spring
Came the baby
And in the passion of the spring
Came the baby
Words that were spoken in the anger of youth
Only half truth
Touched by the child bride, while deep inside her
Lie the real truth
He was the passion of the spring
He was the baby
And half-forgotten in the passing of time
The real crime
Brother and brother with backs to each other
The war sign
And in the passion of the spring
Came the baby
Come back, oh mama, mama, sing him a song
Tell him all that was wrong
Tell him all that you had that was bad
Tell him all that was good, mama
You know that you should, mama
Remember the good, mama
And in the passion of the spring
Came the baby
Come back, oh mama, mama, sing him a song
Tell him all that was wrong
Tell him all that you had that was bad
Tell him all that was good, mama
You know that you should, mama
Remember the good, mama
And with the life that you show
Let him grow
Let him go
Let him go
Let him go
Let him
Let him go
Words that were spoken in the anger of youth
Only half truth
Touched by the child bride, while deep inside her
Lie the real truth
He was the passion of the spring, yeah
He was the baby
He was the passion of the spring
He was the baby
And in the passion of the spring
Came the baby
And in the passion of the spring
Came the baby
The baby
Yeah, the baby
The baby
Yeah, the baby
The baby
Yeah, the baby
The baby
Yeah, the baby
