Once Upon A Summertime (La Valse Des Lilas)

Once upon a Summertime, if you recall
We stopped beside a little flower stall
A bunch of bright forget-me-nots
Was all you'd let me buy you

Once upon a Summertime, just like today
We laughed the happy afternoon away
And stole a kiss in every street cafe

You were sweeter than the blossoms on the tree
I was as proud as any man could be
As if the mayor had offered me the key
To Paris

Now another Wintertime 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
