Cher - Spring lyrics

In a broken down apartment house Laid a woman in labor She said by the grace of God I'll have this child And the help of a neighbor Six o'clock the sun was rising All upon the world Seven forty-five the neighbor smiled And said you got a beautiful girl She named her Spring Winter's been a long time pa**ing She named her Spring And though she's never been wed She held her newborn child and said Ah Spring I've waited a long long time for you In a broken down apartment house Lay a woman dying By her side a little six year old girl Who was softly crying Momma don't go away And leave me all alone Momma said to the welfare lady Find my child a good home I miss my Spring Ah winter's been a long time pa**ing I miss you Spring The angels came that day The welfare lady knelt to pray Ah Spring She'll be long time gone from you A beautiful church outside of town Stands a woman smiling On her hand is a wedding band Of fashionable styling All these years in the orphan's home He shares with you Now all your hopes and your childhood dreams Have all come true He loves you Spring Winter's been a long time pa**ing He needs you Spring He promised you today He would never never go away Ah Spring He's waited a long long time for you Long long time for you
