When it's springtime in the rockies I'll be coming back to you Little sweetheart of the mountains With your bonnie eyes of blue
Once again I'll say I love you While the birds sing all the day When it's springtime in the rockies In the rockies far away
The twilight shadows deepen into night dear The city lights are gleaming o'er the snow I sit alone beside the cheery fireside I'm dreaming dreams from out the long ago
I fancy it is springtime in the rockies The flowers with their colors are aflame And though I long to be back in the rockies I'll wait until the springtime comes again
