It Was May - 柯智棠

It was a Tuesday morning in May and as I awoke

I saw the sun against your fair face

It was the year's loveliest smile

The breeze was fresh and throughout the garden

linger the scent of roses

It was May and I cannot forget that we sang together

The more time passes the more I remember

The air was fresh and the song so sweet

Oh it was May, it was May

You sang love of my heart, love of my heart

You're going far away, you're leaving me

And I will count the hours, when will you return

With nod I said, I will return when the roses bloom again

It was May and I cannot forget that we sang together

The more time passes the more I remember

The air was fresh and the song so sweet

Oh it was May, it was May

You sang love of my heart, love of my heart

You're going far away, you're leaving me

And I will count the hours, when will you return

With nod I said, I will return when the roses bloom again

And I sang love of my heart, love of my heart

You're going far away, you're leaving me

And I will count the hours, when will you return

And you said, I will return when I hear your voice again

I will return, as promised, when the roses bloom again
