First of May...

Oh I love this song! At least it really touches my heart each time I listen to it. It means alot to me.

Why?

That's coz when I was a toddler or so, Dad would always sing this to me when I'm in bed. Listen to it... it is really nice.

interpret the lyrics on your own... to me, it means my dad was seeing into the future, how the bonding between father and son will always be strong, despite knowing that all sons will grow up someday, leaving the house, leaving his parents, leaving on his own, leaving for his wife, his kids, his career...

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,
someone else moved in from far away.

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 gone.

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.

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,
someone else moved in from far away.
