When I Was in My Prime 歌詞

When I was in my prime I flourished like a vine Then came along a false young man And stole alway my time, time And stole alway my time The gardener standing by Three offers he gave me The pink, the violet and red rose Which I refused all three, three Which I refused all three The pink's no flower at all Cause it fades away too soon The violet is too pale a bloom I thought I’d wait till June, June I thought I’d wait till June In June the red rose blooms But that’s no flower for me For then I'll pluck the red rose, boys And plant a willow tree, tree And plant a willow tree The willow tree will twist And the willow tree will twine I wish I was in my young man's arms The one, the love of mine, mine The one, the love of mine
