Lyrics
- It seems that life has been all wrong to me
Because your kisses don’t belong to me
One day in May life was a song to me
But now I’m lonely with my memories only
Chorus
I found you in Maytime
One sweet golden Maytime
Our love only started
Then we parted, broken-hearted
In life’s gray December
When love is an ember
I’ll always remember
Sweet Maytime with you
- Although you are no longer near to me
In all my dreams you still appear to me
That day in May is ever dear to me
Though time is fleeting, I am still repeating
