|
Once upon a summertime, if you recall, |
|
We stopped beside a little flower stall. |
|
A bunch of bright forget-me-nots |
|
was all you'd let me buy me |
|
Once Upon A Summertime, |
|
just like today. |
|
We laughed the happy afternoon away, |
|
and stole a kiss in ev'ry street cafe. |
|
You were sweeter than blossoms on the tree. |
|
I was as proud as any girl could be, |
|
as if the Mayor had offered me the key |
|
to Paris! |
|
Now, another wintertime has come |
|
and gone. |
|
The pigeons feeding in the square |
|
have flown, |
|
but I remember when the vespers chimed. |
|
You loved me Once Upon A Summertime. |
