 When I was small and Christmas trees were tall<br/>

 <br/>
 The apple tree that grew for you and me<br/>
 I watched the apples falling one by one<br/>
 And I recall the moment of them all<br/>
 The day I kissed your cheek and you were gone<br/>
 Now we are tall and Christmas trees are small<br/>
 And you don't ask the time of day<br/>
 But you and I, our love will never die<br/>
 But guess who'll cry come First of May<br/>
