YOU ARE FOR LOVING

When we met, the spring was nearly summer
The lilacs were in blossom, I recall
Later on, with summer nearly autumn


I knew I'd fallen long before the fall
Autumn has turned into winter
So spring can't be very far away
And I have learned a head can be turned
In a year, in a month, in a day
Songs are for singing
Bouquets are for bringing
Hopes are for clinging to
Wheels of fortune are for spinning


And games are for winning
Tunes are for humming
Guitars are for strumming
Dreams are for coming true
And you are for loving
And loving, and loving, and loving
By someone just as wonderful as you
Which makes me wonder if I'll do
