Lyrics

Sometimes in the Spring
v.1
Sometimes in the spring I think of you
You can't go back but sometimes I do
I can see us lounging on the grass
So sure love and youth would last
Caught up in the moment and the mood
v2
Sometimes in the spring when flowers bloom
I see red roses decorate my room
Oh how we'd fight and then make up
And I'd drink coffee from your cup
Why did it get over way too soon
(Bridge)
It's been a long time since I've seen your face
But I remember how you looked back then
My heart feels you there in that special place
Where your memory has always been

(Short melodic solo)
v.3
Sometimes in the spring I smell the rain
I travel down that little country lane
Where we'd melt into each other's arms
Safe and warm, free from harm
Far removed from life's eventual pain
(Bridge)
It's been a long time since I've felt your touch
But I wonder how your life has turned out
When you hear our song, the one we used to play
Do memories of me gather round

(Longer melodic solo)
v.4
Sometimes in the spring I think of you
I guess some dreams weren't meant to come true
I still hold close that place in time
When I was yours and you were mine
Missing you's not something I outgrew
Sometimes in the spring I think of you
