About this book
When we two were in love
Author: Netten, P.E.
Year: 1909
[Verse 1] When we were only sixteen dearie, / Those happy days when all the world seemed fair, / The sunshine bright, and sweet the birds were singing, / And breath of fairest flowers filled the air; / Then came a day, my life’s one day, dear, / The sun sill shone by it was clear forgot, / The birds, still sang, but only in your voice, dear, / Ah! We two were in love and knew it not. [Chorus] Oh! Could we only dream ourselves away dear, / How fast we’d hasten to that dear Old Spot / The sunshine, and the birds, and that sweet day dear, / When we two were in love, and knew it not. [Verse 2] Ah! Life has changed us both since then dear, / And now we say we love, maybe we do, / But then, the birds, the sunshine, and the flowers, dear / ‘Twas they who told us, yet we never knew, / Oh! To go back through all the years dear, / Today, its joys and sorrows all forgot,/ Back to the birds, the sunshine and the flowers dear, / Back to the day we loved and knew it not. [Chorus]
