	Hang onto to your hopes my friend,
	That's an easy thing to say but if your hopes should pass away
	    simply pretend
	That you can build them again!

	Look around, grass is high, fields are ripe,
	It's the spring time of my life......

	Seasons change with the scenery,
	                    Eb        C
	We're entwined in a tapestry

	Won't you stop and remem-ber  me
