Dry your eyes boy, / there's no need to despair. / Forget about yesterday and the bad times that you've had. / You've loved and lost, and now you're feeling so blue, / but can't you see it's me who really loves you? /

With the love I've got you'll forget about her, / and find it easy / to live without her. /

It's / only springtime, / oh, you're too young to say you're through with love. / It's / only springtime, / and I'll be different boy, / I'll promise you / (I'll swear to you.) /

Once more you tell me / about her new friend; / you say your heart's / been broken again. / How many times / have you looked into my eyes? / Don't you realise we're two of a kind? /

With the love I've got you'll forget about her, / and find it easy / to live without her. /

It's / only springtime, / oh, you're too young to say you're through with love. / It's / only springtime, / and I'll be different, / I'll be different, I swear to you. /

I've been watching / all you're love affairs; / three years now - / don't you think I care? / How many times / have you looked into my eyes? / Don't you realise we're two of a kind? /

It's / only springtime, / you're too / young to say you're through with love. / It's / only springtime, / and I'll be different, / I'll be different, boy, / yeah. / It's / only springtime, / you're too young to say you're through with love, / through with love. It's / only springtime, / I'll promise you, / I'll swear you, / oh, I'll promise you. / It's / only springtime, / ooh ooh. / It's / only springtime...
