Once I was a sentimental thing
Gave my heart away each spring
Now a spring romance hasn't got a chance
Promised my first glance to winter
All I've got to show's a splinter for my little fling
Spring this year has got me feeling
Like a horse that never left the post
I lie in my room staring up at the ceiling
Spring can really hang you up the most
Spring is here, there's no mistaking
Robins building nests from coast to coast
My heart tries to sing so they won't hear it breaking
Spring can really hang you up the most
All summer long those birds twitter-twit
I know the tune, "This is love, this is it!"
Heard it before and I know the score
And I've decided that spring is a bore
Doctors once prescribed a tonic
"Sulphur and molasses" was the dose
Didn't help a bit, my condition must be chronic
Spring can really hang you up the most
All alone, the party's over
Old man winter was a gracious host
But when you keep praying for snow to hide the clover
Spring can really hang you up the most
All summer long those birds twitter-twit
I know the tune, "This is love, this is it!"
Heard it before and I know the score
And I've decided that spring is a bore
Doctors once prescribed a tonic
"Sulphur and molasses" was the dose
Didn't help a bit, my condition must be chronic
Spring can really hang you up the most
All alone, the party's over
Old man winter was a gracious host
But when you keep praying for snow to hide the clover
Spring can really hang you up the most
