Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most

Once I was a sentimental thing

Threw my heart away each Spring

Now a Spring romance hasn't got a chance

Promised my first dance to Winter

All I've got to show's a splinter for my little fling

Spring is here, there's no mistaking

Robins building nests from coast to coast

My heart tries to sing so they won't hear it breaking

Spring can really hang you up the most

College boys are writing sonnets

In the tender passion, there it grows

But I'm on the shelf wearing last year's Easter bonnets

Spring can really hang you up the most

All afternoon, those birds twitter twit

I know the tune, this is love, this is it

Heard it before, and I know the score

And I've decided that Spring is a bore

Love was sure around the new year

Now it's April, love is just a ghost

Spring arrived on time, but what became of you, dear?

Spring can really hang you up the most

All alone, the party's over

Old Man Winter was a gracious host

But when you keep praying for snow to hide the clover

Spring can really hang you up the most
