about

[Jazz, Hip-hop] (3:06) - Annie originally wrote this love song
thinking it would be performed in the style of an American songbook standard. When producer/drummer Brady Blade heard it, he created elements of jazz, hip hop and rock and Swedish rapper Tzinnat Inch added his perspective. The result is a uniquely modern take on love in the midst of chaos.

lyrics

Springtime in Baltimore
© ℗ 2022 by Annie Benjamin, Rocket Girl Music (BMI)

It’s Springtime in Baltimore
Winter’s gone, Sun’s knocking at my door
Cherry blossoms bloom
The azalea’s perfume
Is hanging on the air

There's a full moon over the Chesapeake
Harbor lights are enchanting me
Warm April days
Will surrender to May’s
Love affairs

Bridge:
The Oriole is calling by the hour
He’s making proclamations to the wind
Until his mate appears among the flowers
He’s come back home again

It’s springtime here once more
And it’s you that I adore
So come back to me
Come back and see
Springtime in Baltimore

Yo...
It's been a while since we saw some beautiful trees blossom
Beautifully awesome
Give it a good look until we saw them
Cause it'll take a lot of years until we recharge them
I'm saying that I see a way into a same lane
Feeling low is when you're feelin' the same pain...
The same day

You're feelin' Superfly
So please tell me who knew that I would be reborn

But why I am I alive?
Just to die?
What's up with it?
I'm not depressed livin'..
I just got no luck with it

If you’ll come back to me
It will always be Spring Time
It’s Springtime in Baltimore

Annie Benjamin "Night Bird" | Producer: Brady Blade | Release Dec. 2022 | Record/Mix: Chris Bell / Annie Benjamin’s music is a lot like the weather in Texas…. unpredictable and constantly changing. She has sung everything from country to jazz, rock 'n roll to old time gospel. She feels at home on the theatrical stage, in the concert hall, as well as in piano bars and gin joints of ill repute. ... more
