Springtime Promises

Summertime is with us once again
Flowers blooming everywhere again
And the cold days of winter are behind us now
And the springtime promises all come true
Trees and grass and bushes green again
The sky's so blue, I don't remember when
The cold days of winter took the sun away
But the spring time promises all came true
It's summertime now so please don't throw it away
Winter world will be with us once again
Flowers dying everywhere again
And the warm days of summer will they far behind
And the springtime promises soon forgot
Grass and bushes withered, and the trees are bare
Dark and cloudy skies and people in despair
And the warm days of summer seem so far away
And the springtime promises still forgot
It's wintertime so you've got to wait a while
For the spring time promises to come true
Now the new born year has come once more
Gentle showers are with us as before
It's the time when all promises are now made true
And the springtime sun returns anew
Someday all will turn to green again
Flowers will burst of seeds to bloom again
The warm days of springtime tell us all is past
Can you feel your promises will be true
It's springtime now, be happy again
