"if Ever I Shall Leave You"
If ever I shall leave you, it wouldn't be in spring.
For the sweet smell, of the flowers, makes, my heart, begin to sing.
If ever I shall leave you, in summer it couldn't be.
For the hot strong breeze, of summer, brings out the "love", in me!
And, in the cold harsh winds, of winter, you would need, my warmth, to cover thee.
So, I guess I'd leave, in fall, as the leaves cover the ground.
But, then I couldn't leave at all!
For you would always need, my love, around.
