Lyrics

Spring

[Verse 1]

In a broken down apartment house laid a woman in labor

She said "By the grace of God, I'll have this child and the help of a neighbour"

Six o'clock, the sun was rising all upon the world

7:45 the neighbour smiled and said "You got a beautiful girl"

[Chorus]

She named her Spring

Winter's been a long time passing

She named her Spring

And though she's never been wed

She held her newborn child and said

"Ah, Spring, I've waited a long long time for you"

[Verse 2]

In a broken down apartment house lay a woman dying

By her side a little six year old girl who was softly crying

"Momma, don't go away and leave me all alone"

Momma said to the welfare lady "Find my child a good home"

[Chorus]

I miss my Spring

Ah winter's been a long time passing

I miss you, Spring

The angels came that day

The welfare lady knelt to pray

"Ah, Spring, she'll be long time gone from you"

[Verse 3]

In a beautiful church outside of town stands a woman smiling

On her hand is a wedding band of fashionable styling

All these years in the orphan's home he shares with you

Now all your hopes and your childhood dreams have all come true

[Chorus]

He loves you, Spring

Winter's been a long time passing

He needs you, Spring

He promised you today

He would never, never go away

Ah, Spring (Ah, Spring)

He's waited a long, long time for you

Long, long time for you
