When the World Was Young

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Bridge] While sitting around we often recall The laugh of the year, the night of them all 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 There's laughter and lights and wine for us all And beautiful girls are quite divine But oftеn my eyes see a differеnt shine [Verse 2] Ah, the apple trees Sunlit memories Where the hammock hung On our backs we'd lie looking at sky 'Til the stars were strung Only last July When the world was young [Outro] When the world was young
