When the World Was Young (Remastered 2015)-Sheila Jordan

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
