WHEN IT'S SPRINGTIME IN THE ROCKIES
(Words by Mary Hale Woolsey & Milt Taggart
Music by Robert Sauer 1923)

The twilight shadows deepen into night, dear,
The city lights are gleaming o'er the snow
I sit alone beside the cheery fire ,dear
I'm dreaming dreams from out the long ago
I fancy it springtime in the mountains
The flowers with their color are aflame
And every day I hear you softly saying
I'll wait until the springtime comes again

CHORUS
When it's springtime in the rockies
I'm coming back to you
Little sweetheart of the mountains
With your bonnie eyes so blue
Once again I'll say I love you
While the birds sing all the day
When its springtime in the rockies
I've kept your image guarded in my heart dear
I've kept my love for you as pure as snow
I'm longing for the time when I shall come dear
Back to that dear old western home and you
I fancy its springtime in the mountains
The maple leaves in first sky green appear
I hear you softly say, my Queen of Maytime
This springtime you have to meet me here
CHORUS
