Lyrics

[Chorus]
Green grow the lilacs all sparkling with dew
Green grow the lilacs when winter is through
Each time I see lilacs my heart breaks in two
Because springtime is here and its here without you

[Verse 1]
As sure as the bluebirds that fly up above
Springtime is sad without someone to love
Yes springtime is sad and it troubles my mind
In a world full of women, not one girl is mine

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
They say that its best to forget what we had
Then it is to remember and always be said
But still I keep wondering each now and then
If ever Ill see you and kiss you again

[Chorus]
