Springtime Lover

                     
What happed to you, my springtime lover?
We danced so merrily--
I played my harp, you sang your songs,
All summer by the sea

What happed to you, my springtime lover?
We needed wood and bread
When wintertime arrived due course
You sang me songs instead

What happed to you, my springtime lover?
When the baby cried?
When snow fell down to smother day  
When the fire died?

What happed to you, my springtime lover?
Why did you go away?
Mayhap you’ve found another love
For your springtime play
