Cold Spring Blues

A soulful blues folk song by Nathan Ness, inspired by rural Minnesota life.

Cold spring blues, in the morning dew
Flow through me, true

Guitar weeps for the miles I've roamed
Far from home

Chorus

Cold spring blues, sing my sorrow low
Let it go, slow

In the folk, find the heart's quiet cry
Blues reply

Rivers run cold in the winter wind
Where it begins

Harmonica calls from the field so green
In between

Chorus

Cold spring blues, sing my sorrow low
Let it go, slow

In the folk, find the heart's quiet cry
Blues reply

Bridge

When the spring thaws and the waters rise
Blues surprise

In the melt, feel the soul's rebirth
Back to earth

Outro

Cold spring blues, fade to spring's warm song
All along
