I Know Why - June Christy

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
