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 time 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

Now another winter time 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
