Once Upon A Summertime

Blossom Dearie Blossom Dearie

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 ever let you buy me

Once upon a summertime just like today
We laughed the happy afternoon away
And stole a kiss at every street cafe

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

Chorus (2x):
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
