(Ah, the Apple Trees) When the World Was Young

Lyrics
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 joke I 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 Lyin' in the hay Games we used to play While the rounds were sung Only yesterday When the world was young Wherever I go thеy mention my name And that in itself, is somе sort of fame "Come by for a drink, we're havin' 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 different shine Ah, the apple trees And the hive of bees Where we once got stung Summers at Bordeaux Rowing the bateau Where the willow hung Just a dream ago When the world was young When the world was young
