Spring will come and grass will grow,
The brooks will hum with melted snow,
If love is good to me!
Clouds will cry and rain will fall,
Earth will sigh and drink it all,
If love is good to me!

There always will be skies of blue above me,
Just as long as mother nature makes you love me!

Leaf will fall from Winter's chill,
And I'll recall the Summer thrill
That once you gave to me!
These wondrous things each year
Depend on you, my dear;
This all could be if love is good to me!

There always will be skies of blue above me,
Just as long as mother nature makes you love me!

Leaves will fall from Winter's chill,
And I'll recall the Summer thrill
That once you gave to me!
These wondrous things each year
Depend on you, my dear;
This all could be if love is good to me!
