This song, “Spring Will be a Little Late This Year” by the great Frank Loesser was in the noir film (1944) Christmas Holiday. Another great standard by Irving Berlin was also in that film: “Always.” The actress Deanna Durbin starred in the movie and got to sing both these famous songs.
“Spring will be a little late this year
A little slow reviving that music it made in my heart
Yes, time heals all things so I needn’t cling to this fear
It’s merely that spring will be a little late, a little late this year.”
