When The Springtime Comes Again

Once more Little Annie I must leave you

We shall part at the end of the lane

But promise me Little Annie

You will wait for me til springtime comes again

 

When the sun shines down on the mountain

And the wild sheep are wandering all alone

When the birds and the bees are a humming

Makes me think that springtime wont be very long

 

   When springtime comes on the mountain

   And the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain

   I shall watch for the bees to return to their trees

   And I'll be waiting when the springtime comes again

 

Now springtime is here Little Annie

I am on my way back to the lane

For you promised me Little Annie

You'd be waiting when springtime comes again
