My heart is singing because it's May
My cares go winging and fly away
For spring came swinging along
Bringing a song today.

The breeze that lingers upon his way
To watch a sunbeam at play
Composes a love song to the roses
A love song that my heart is singing today.

On the wings of song, let me fly away
Where woodland voices are calling
Leaving all my cares behind me
Never more to find me
While I tell the world this is May.

For spring came swinging along
Bringing a song today.

(bridge)

Composes a love song to the roses
A love song that my heart is singing today.
