Sarah Vaughan - Once Upon a Summertime

Once upon a summertime, if you recall
We stopped beside a little flower stall.
A bunch of bright forget-me-nots was all I'd let you buy me.

Once upon a summertime, just like today
We laughed the happy afternoon away
And stole a kiss in every street cafe.

You were sweeter than the blossom on the tree.
I was as proud as any girl could be
As if the mayor had offered me the key to Paris.

Now another wintertime has come and gone.
The pigeons feeding in the square have flown
But I'll remember when the vespers chime
You loved me once upon a summertime.
