When The World Was Young

[ti:When The World Was Young] [ar:June Christy] [al:Gone For The Day/Fair And Warmer] [by:季风网-【http://www.ip21.cn】] [offset:0] When The World Was Young - June Christy It isn't by chance I happen to be a boulevardier The toast of Paree For over the noise the talk and the smoke I'm good for a laugh a drink or a joke I walk in a room a party of all Come sit over here somebody will call A drink for my friend a drink for us all But how many times I sat and recall Are the apple trees Blossoms in the breeze that we walk among Lying in the hay games we used to play While the rounds were sung Only yesterday when the world was young Wherever I go they mention my name And that in itself is some sort of fame Come by for a drink we're having a game Wherever I go I'm glad that I came The talk is quite gay the company's fine There's laughter and lights and glamour and wine And man and summer's been mine But often my eyes see a different shine Are the apple trees sunlit memories Where the hammock swung On our backs sweet lie looking at the sky Till the stars were strung Only last July Only last July when the world was young
