One morning in May, don't forget, dear
That one wonderful day when we met, dear
The world o - ver was blue clover
And life carefree and gay
One morning in May, oh, the rapture
Tonight darling, I pray to recapture
Just one hour, one flower
From love's faded bouquet
Kisses that came with the flame of springtime
Burning your name in my heart
Precious to me like a rosary
Now that we're apart
One morning in May to remember
That love smolders away to an ember
And dreams perish, we'll still cherish
That one, one morning in May
