MORE INFO >>

A night of spring is a lovely thing

But I feel sad in this night of spring

For this is the time the sloe gets bright

And this is a most bewitching night

And I am lonely and you are far

And you can't hear what I sing

I wish I knew where you are tonight

I wish you're thinking of me tonight

Where are you tonight?

I wish you feel how I long for you

And I wish you're missing me too

And I wish I knew where to go

Knowing you

We ought to walk where the cowslips grow

Behind the hedge of candescent sloe

And you ought to smile and look at me

And I ought to kiss you tenderly

But I don't know if you still are mine

This lovely evening of spring
