Once Upon a Summertime

Once upon a summertime if you recall We stopped beside then in a flower stall A bunch of bright forget-me-nots Was all I let you buy me Once upon a summertime just like today We laughed the happy afternoon away And stole a kiss in every street café You were sweeter than the blossom on the tree I was as proud as any girl could be As if the major had offered me the key, 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 chime You loved me once upon a summertime Tous les lilas, tous les lilas de mai N'en finiront, n'en finiront jamais De faire la fíte du coeur Des jeunes qui s'aiment S'aiment, s'aiment Now another wintertime has come and gone The pigeons feeding in the square have flown But I remember when the vespers chime You loved me once upon a summertime...
