When the World Was Young |
It isn’t by chance I happen to be |
A boulevardier, the toast of Paris |
For over the noise, the talk and the smoke |
I’m good for a laugh, a drink or a jokeI walk in a room, a party or ball |
«Come sit over here» somebody will call |
«A drink for M’sieur, a drink for us all! |
But how many times I stop and recall |
Ah, the apple trees |
Blossoms in the breeze |
That we walked 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 fine |
There’s laughter and lights, and glamour and wine |
And beautiful girls and some of them mine |
But often my eyes see a diff’rent shine |
Ah, the apple trees |
Sunlit memories |
Where the hammock swung |
On our backs we’d lie |
Looking at the sky |
Till the stars were strung |
Only last July when the world was young |
Ah, the apple trees |
Blossoms in the breeze |
That we walked among |
Lying in the hay |
Games we used to play |
While the rounds were sung |
Only yesterday, when the world was young |
While sitting around, we often recall |
The laugh of the year, the night of them all |
The blonde who was so attractive that year |
Some opening night that made us all cheer |
Remember that time we all got so tight |
And Jacques and Antoine got into a fight |
The gendarmes who came, passed out like a light |
I laugh with the rest, it’s all very bright |
