SONG, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: The spring will come when the year turns
Last Line: I never may dream again?
Alternate Author Name(s): Schauffler, Mrs. Robert H.


The Spring will come when the year turns,
As if no Winter had been,
But what shall I do with a locked heart
That lets no new year in?

The birds will go when the Fall goes,
The leaves will fade in the field,
But what shall I do with an old love
Will neither die nor yield?

Oh! youth will turn as the world turns,
And dim grow laughter and pain,
But how shall I hide from an old dream
I never may dream again?
