               Gm9                 C
This is the springtime of my loving -
                           G# G
the second season I am to know
You are the sunlight in my growing -
so little warmth I've felt before.
It isn't hard to feel me glowing -
I watched the fire that grew so low.

It is the summer of my smiles -
flee from me Keepers of the Gloom.
Speak to me only with your eyes.
It is to you I give this tune.
Ain't so hard to recognize -
These things are clear to all from

 G#      G
Time to time.

      C   G                               F    C
Talk Talk - I've felt the coldness of my winter
                    G
I never thought it would ever go.
                              F    C
I cursed the gloom that set upon us
             G               F
But I know that I love you so
C         G                 G# G
But I know that I love you so

These are the seasons of emotion
and like the winds they rise and fall
This is the wonder of devotion -
I see the torch we all must hold.
This is the mystery of the quotient -
Upon us all a little rain must fall
