This Time of the Year

(Clyde Otis - Brook Benton - Ben Goodwin)



The trees stand so silent they seem so forlorn

The branches are barren the leaves have all gone

Snowflakes are coming winter is near

I know I'll miss you most this time of the year.



It was springtime when I found you with angel blue eyes

Love words were whispered neath clear sunny skies

Two hearts that were happy with love that was near

I'll always remember this time of the year.

We loved through the summer two flowers did fade

You said before spring came you'd come back to stay

Now cold winds are blowin' and you're nowhere near

I know I miss you most this time of the year.



I know I miss you most this time of the year...
