June in January
Julie London Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's June in January
Because I'm in love
It always is spring in my heart
with you in my arms.
The snow is just white blossoms
that fall from above.
And here is the reason, my dear,
Your magical charms.

The night is cold
the trees are bare
And I can feel the scent of roses in the air.
It's June in January





Because I'm in love.
But only because I'm in love with you.
