Album: Midnight, Moonlight & Magic: The Very Best of Henry Mancini
Year: 2004
what is a youth
impetuous fire;
what is a maid
ice and desire;
the world wags on
a rose will bloom,
it then will fade;
so does the youth,
so does the fairest maid;
comes a time when one sweet smile,
hasn't seasoned for awhile;
then loves in loves with me;
some they only think to marry,
other will tease and terry,
mine is the very best perry;
cupid he rules us all;
caper the caper sing me the song,
death will come soon to hush us along;
sweeter than honey,bitter than gull,
love is the past time that will never pull,
sweeter than honey, bitter than gull,
cupid he rules us all
repeat:
a rose will bloom,it then will fade
so does the youth,so does the fairest maid
