When the World Was Young - Sheila Jordan
It isn't by chance that I happen to be
The build of the boulevard the toast of paris
For over the noise the craw 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 the lady a drink for us all
But how many times do 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 gay the company is fine
There's laughter and lights and glamour and wine
And handsome man and some of them mine
But often my eyes see a different shine
Ah the apple trees
Sun lit memories
Where the hammock swung
On our backs we'd lie
Looking at the sky
'Til the wants were strung
Just you're gone
When the world was young
