First of May

Though its still quite far from May. This song came up randomly on my player. I suddenly felt the urge to put this in. I used to love this song. I still do now. Stirred up alot of memories...and old fairy tale-like fantasies too. An emotional burst. One that I've been missing for so long...one that I would probably need at this very moment...when my day earlier has gone not-so-good. This at least, will help soften the sharp edges of this cruel realistic world. I'd better indulge myself in this for a while...and while i still can.

Bee Gees - First Of May
When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
we used to love while others used to play.
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
some one else moved in from far away.

chorus:
Now we are tall, and Christmas trees are small,
and you don't ask the time of day.
But you and I, our love will never die,
but guess we'll cry come first of May.

The apple tree that grew for you and me,
I watched the apples falling one by one.
And I recall the moment of them all,
the day I kissed your cheek and you were mine.

>>> chorus

When I was small, and Christmas trees were tall,
do do do do do do do do do...
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by,
some one else moved in from far away.
