Lyrics

I was out promenadin'
And high hopes was fadin'
That dreams never really come true
When up jumped spring time
I got a look at you
All at once, it was heady
A gaze long and steady
Made sounds of the patter grow dim
And up jumped spring time
And love came on in
Now my heart wants to cheer
Life's sweet promise is here
And love is a lovely thing
And we're sweethearts together
Like bird and the feather
Our love is as free as the wind
'Cause up jumped spring time
So, hello my friend
Now my heart wants to cheer
Life's sweet promise is here
And love is a lovely thing
And we're sweethearts together
Like bird and the feather
Our love is as free as the wind
'Cause up jumped spring time
So, hello my friend
