Evangeline Florence — The Swallows

[Verse 1] I have opened wide my lattice Letting in the laughing breeze That is telling happy stories To the flowers and the trees That is telling happy stories To the flowers and the trees For the spring, the spring is coming For the spring, the spring is coming 'Tis goodbye to all the snow Yes, I know it, for the swallows Have come back to tell me so Yes, I know it, for the swallows Have come back to tell me so Spring is coming, spring is coming Spring is coming! [Verse 2] In one corner of my window They have built a tiny nest Where the rosy sun can see it When each night he goes to rest Where the rosy sun can see it When each night he goes to rest When each night he goes to rest And I look at it each morning From my window, and I know Spring is coming, and the swallows Have come back to tell me so Oh! ’Tis goodbye to all the snow Spring is coming, for the swallows Have come back to tell me so Spring is coming, spring is coming Spring is coming!
