[Verse 1]
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 café

[Verse 2]
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 winter time has come and gone
Thе pigeons feeding in the square havе flown
But I remember when the vespers chimed
You loved me once upon a summertime
