Richard Rodgers
It Might as Well Be Spring
[Verse 1]
I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm
I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string
I'd say that I had spring fever
But I know it isn't even spring

[Verse 2]
I'm as starry-eyed and vaguely discontented
Like a nightingale without a song to sing
Oh, why should I have spring fever
When I know it isn't even spring?

[Bridge]
I keep wishing I was somewhere else
Walking down a strange new street
Hearing words that I have never heard
From a man I have yet to meet

[Verse 3]
I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud
Or a robin on the wing
But I feel so gay in a melancholy way
That it might as well be spring
Yes, it might, might as well be spring
[Saxophone Solo]

[Piano Solo]

[Bridge]
Oh, I keep wishing I was somewhere else
Walking down a strange new street
Hearing words that I have never, never heard
From a man I have yet to meet

[Verse 3]
I'm as busy as a spider spinning daydreams
I'm as giddy as a baby on a swing
I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud
Or a robin on the wing
But I feel so gay in a melancholy way
That it might as well be spring
It might, might as well be spring
