Spring will be a little late this year
A little late arriving
In my lonely world over here

For you have left me
And where is our April of old?
You have left me
And winter continues cold

As if to say

Spring will be a little slow to start
A little slow reviving
The music it made in my heart

Yes, time heals all things
So I needn't cling to this fear

It's merely that

Spring will be a little late this year
