|
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
|
When your true lover comes your way
|
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
|
The poets say
|
|
The story goes that once a cherry tree
|
Beside an apple tree did grow
|
And there a boy once met his bride to be
|
Long long ago
|
|
The boy looked into her eyes, it was a sight to enthrall
|
The breezes joined in their sighs, the blossoms started to fall
|
And as they gently carressed, the lovers looked up to find
|
The branches of the two trees were intertwined,
|
|
And that is why the poets always write
|
If there's a new moon bright above
|
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
|
When you're in love
|
