《When The World Was Young》歌词

[00:00:00] When The World Was Young - Anita O'Day/The Three Sounds

[00:00:00] It isn't by chance I happen to be

[00:00:06] A boulevard deer the toast of Paris

[00:00:10] For over the noise the talk and the smoke

[00:00:14] I'm good for a laugh a drink or a joke

[00:00:19] I walk in a room a party or ball

[00:00:24] Come sit over here somebody will call

[00:00:29] A drink for Monsieur a drink for us all

[00:00:34] But how many times I stop and recall

[00:00:43] Ah the apple trees

[00:00:48] Blossoms in the breeze

[00:00:52] That we walked among

[00:01:00] Lying in the hay

[00:01:04] Games we used to play

[00:01:09] While the rounds were sung

[00:01:14] Only yesterday

[00:01:19] When the world was young

[00:01:25] Wherever I go they mention my name

[00:01:29] And that in itself is some sort of fame

[00:01:33] Come by for a drink we're having a game

[00:01:37] Wherever I go I'm glad that I came

[00:01:42] The talk is quite gay the company fine

[00:01:47] There's laughter and lights and glamour and wine

[00:01:52] And handsome young man and some of them mine

[00:01:59] But often my eyes see a different shine

[00:02:08] Ah the apple trees

[00:02:15] Sun lit memories

[00:02:21] Where the hammock swung

[00:02:29] On our backs we'd lie

[00:02:35] Looking at the sky

[00:02:40] 'Til the stars were strung

[00:02:46] Only last July

[00:02:52] When the world was young

[00:02:57] Just dream ago

[00:03:03] When the world was young
