Lyrics Music In May - Ivor Novello

Music In May

All the winter through,
I sat alone, and thought of you,
As lazy hours on the clock dragged by!
Every day, so long as a year,
And sad as a sigh,
Brought happiness near!
For soon as early spring,
Awoke the birds, and made them sing,
Of all the joys that are born anew!
Winter and sorrow took wing…
And the old desire began to burn;
I dreamed of your return,
And found it was true…
The first music in may,
Sings to my heart,
Live for today!
'Tis a sigh…
Floating by…
That whispers a warning,
New Rapture is dawning.
That song calls us away,
Just you and I--
We must obey!
Now’s our chance…
For romance!
Let’s follow the music in may…
That song calls us away,
Just you and I--
We must obey!
Now’s our chance…
For romance!
Let’s follow the music in may…
