Golden Days 1924 Romberg - Student Prince

Down where the Neckar
flows swiftly alone,
Nestles a town
that is famous in song,
Laughing lads roam
through its streets so quaint,
No one's a sinner,
much less a saint.
Twilight comes stealing
and moonlight shines down,
Painting with silver
old Heidelberg Town,
Hark how the echoes are ringing,
with their song!
Laughing they circle their glasses
all night long.

Golden days
in the sunshine of our happy youth,
Golden days
full of innocence and full of truth!
In our hearts
we remember them all else above
Golden days,
days of youth and love!
How we laughed
with a gaiety that had no sting!
Looking back
through memory's haze.
We will know
life has nothing sweeter
than its Springtime
Golden days,
when we're young,
golden days!

Golden days
in the sunshine of our happy youth,
Golden days
full of innocence and full of truth!
In our hearts
we remember them all else above
Golden days,
days of youth and love!
How we laughed
with a gaiety that had no sting!
Looking back
through memory's haze.
We will know
life has nothing sweeter
than its Springtime
Golden days,
when we're young,
golden days!
