Title: First Of May



When I was small,

and Christmas trees were tall,

we used to love

while others used to play.

Don't ask me why,

but time has passed us by,

someone else

moved in from far away.



Now we are tall,

and Christmas trees are small,

and you don't ask

the time of day.

But you and I,

our love will never die,

but guess who'll cry

come first of May.



The apple tree

that grew for you and me,

I watched the apples

falling one by one.

And I recall

the moment of them all,

the day I kissed your cheek

and you were mine.



Now we are tall,

and Christmas trees are small,

and you don't ask

the time of day.

But you and I,

our love will never die,

but guess who'll cry

come first of May.



When I was small,

and Christmas trees were tall,

do do do do do do do do do ...

Don't ask me why,

but time has passed us by,

someone else moved in

from far away.
