Spring Really Hang You Up The Most
This wonderful song is written by Thomas J. Wolf and Frances Landesman.
Mark Murphy doesn't sing it in its entirety but still I like his version better
than Ella's.
Sinon, voilĂ . C'est une chanson de saison.
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 plinter
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
Say,
spring can really hang you up the most
Morning's kiss wakes trees
and flowers,
And to them I'd like to drink a toast;
I walk in the park
just to kill lonely hours
Spring can really hang you up the
most
All afternoon the birds twitter twit
I know the tune:
"This is love, this is it!"
Heard it before, and now I know the score
And I've decided that spring is a bore
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.
Spring can really hang you up the most
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 they're engrossed
But I'm on the shelf with last year's
Easter bonnets
Spring can really hang you up the most
Love came
my way I hoped it would last
We had our day, now that's all in the
past
Spring came along a season of song
Full of sweet promise but
something went wrong
Doctors once prescribed a tonic
Sulphur and
molasses was the dose
Didn't help a bit my condition must be
chronic
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.
