We stopped beside a little flower stall
A bunch of bright forget me nots
Was all I'd 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 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 winter 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
Once upon a summertime, if you recall We stopped beside a little flower stall A bunch of bright forget me nots Was all I'd 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 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 winter 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 Explain Request ×
