WHERE ARE YOU?
(Music: Al Rinker / Lyrics: Gus Kahn)
Jo Stafford - 1954
I hear the song of a babbling brook
I watch the apple blossoms falling
I hear the meadow lark a-calling
But where are you
I found a flower in a shady nook
To tell me springtime is returning
And here am I alone and yearning
But where are you
We said goodbye in grey December
And all the winter through
I had the springtime to remember
Now that it's here, love where are you
The whippoorwill trills a song of love
To tell me all the world is waking
Why must my lonely heart be breaking
Oh, where, oh, where are you
