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 this year has got me feeling like a horse that never left the post
I lie in my room staring up at the ceiling,
Spring can really hang you up the most
College boys are writing sonnets,
In the "tender passion" they're engrossed;
But i'm on the shelf like last years's easter bonnets,
Spring can really hang you up the most

Love came my way, i hope it would last
We had our day, now that's all in the past
Spring came along a season of sun,
Full of sweet promise but something when wrong

Love seemed sure around the new year,
Now it's april, love is just a ghost;
Spring arrived on time, only 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
