Miriam Makeba - I'm in Love with Spring Lyrics

I love the sound of robins in springtime
The song so sweet and clear
I love the glow that comes from the sunshine
I'm in love with spring

Go away winter with your coldness seeping through my bones
Howling winds that blow so strong with snowy overtones
Threatening me with illness that will surely cause me harm
Coats with furs and the boots and the hats hide my natural charm

I love the fragrant smell of the flowers
As all the petals bloom
I love to walk through April showers
I'm in love with spring

Children laughing, singing, dancing, playing all the day
Everyone feels so gay and peppery, summer is on the way
Lovers are busy making plans for marriage is sure this year
Old folks sitting in their rockers grinning from ear to ear

I love the voice that whispers I love you, but when that love is gone
I love when the summer makes its debut
I'm in love with spring
