Why do robins sing in December Long before the Springtime is due? And even though it's snowing, violets are growing I know why and so do you Why do breezes sigh every evening whispering your name as they do? And why have I the feeling stars are on my ceiling? I know why and so do you When you smile at me I hear gypsy violins When you dance with me, I'm in heaven when the music begins I can see the sun when it's raining, hiding every cloud from my view And why do I see rainbows when you're in my arms? I know why and so do you Why do robins sing in December Long before the springtime is due? And even though it's snowing, violets are growing I know why and so do you Why do breezes sigh every evening whispering your name as they do? And why have I the feeling stars are on my ceiling? I know why and so do you When you smile at me I hear gypsy violins When you dance with me, I'm in heaven when the music begins I can see the sun when it's raining, hiding every cloud from my view And why do I see rainbows when you're in my arms? I know why and so do you
