Just Because It's Spring- -

Flowers blossoming oh, they bloom Just because it’s spring Listen to the birds as they swoon Lo, behold the cottonwood trees Up in the branches those hand waving leaves Dangling from branch to branch In the background lies a figure Of a woman a lovely woman Oh she’s such a pretty picture Just because it’s spring In her floral pretty cotton dress And in silhouette in the foreground is a man Standing ever tall behind the rose garden His promises of live true loves honesty Is for you girl springs for you sure Spring fever has warmed up both our hearts Flowers, blossoming oh, they bloom Spring time Listen to us swoon underneath the cottonwood trees ooh wee And it was spring time winters gone away You awaited sunshine summers here to stay, yea As in silhouette in the foreground is us in the garden Standing tall behind the rose garden embracing And our promises of love ever so true we two love honesty This is for you girl spring fever has warmed our hearts together And the flowers oh, they bloom As I watch from my lonely room The air seems to clear The sounds of noises of the children plays and the cars and buses come near We do hear Just because it’s spring 5/12/72 Written words by James Edward Lee 1972, 1974, 2019©
