FOR MELISSA SPRING WITH ALL MY LOVE

When I was a young girl I heard a man named Claye Hart sing a song entitled "Spring". From the first time that I heard it, I always wanted to name a little girl Spring. On September 14, 1978 at 6:17 in the morning, a beautiful baby girl entered my life. I finally got my wish and named her Melissa Spring. She goes by the name Spring much more than Melissa because it is an unusual name. When she was little I always received compliments because of her name and I am proud that she has chosen to use that name. This was the song that was between Spring and I. My darling daughter, I did wait a long long time for you. I am so very proud of you and your family.


Spring at five In a broken down apartment house
lay a woman in labor.
She said,"By the grace of God
I'll have this child
And the help of a neighbor."
At six o'clock the sun was rising
up upon the world.
At seven forty five the neighbor
smiled and said, "you got a beautiful girl"

She named her Spring
Winters been a long time passing
Spring at ten She named her Spring
and though she never been wed
she held her newborn child and said
"Spring I've waited a long long time for you
My Spring I've waited a long long time for you."

In the broken down apartment house,
the woman lay dying,
by her side her little girl
softly was crying
She said "mama don't go away
and leave me along".
Spring Her mama held her little hand and prayed
"find my child a good home."

I'll miss my Spring,
Winters been a long time passing
I'll miss my Spring,
The angels carried her away,
her little girl knelt down to pray
Spring she'll be a long time gone from you.
Yes Spring she'll be a long time gone from you.

In a beautiful church
a man and a woman are praying,
Spring and Joe On their hands on wedding bands
the church bells are playing
and in Heaven an angel is smiling
on her daughter below,
As the groom kneels by her side
he tells his bride, "I need you so".

"I love you Spring
Winters been a long time passing
I love you Spring
I promise this today
I will never go away,
Spring, I've waiting a long long time for you
My Spring, I've waited a long long time for you".
