I remember Spring in Maine
The gust of rain, that country lane, and you
I remember fragrant pines
That bear the signs of Valentine's we drew

How you kissed me
And how we laughed those windy afternoons
Racing on the dunes
Like a pair of loons

I recall what might have been
And I recall the pain of coming back another year
To find that Springtime in the State of Maine
Is mainly a state of mind

(Instrumental Break)

How you kissed me
And how we laughed those windy afternoons
Racing on the dunes
Like a pair of loons

I recall what might have been
And I recall the pain of coming back another year
To find that Springtime in the State of Maine
Is mainly a state of mind
