First Line: When spring comes up the slope of the grey old sea
Last Line: With the wisdom of lovers, my yvonne.
Subject(s): Spring
When spring comes up the slope of the grey old sea,
Like a green galleon,
With joy in her wake, with light on her sails,
What will she bring to us, my Yvonne?
The long, sweet lisp and drench of the sweetness of rain,
The strong, glad youth of the sun,
And a touch of the madness that makes men wise
With the wisdom of lovers, my Yvonne.
