Sweet Cider Time When You Were Mine 1916

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 17 Feb 2005

I'm thinking of a little town,
where birds are singing,
bells are ringing on the hill,
I see you in your simple gown,
the mem'ries bringing
'round my heart that old love thrill;
I close my eyes and wander,
in dreams I go back yonder,
it seems I'm with you still.

By the mill,
where they made sweet cider,
I made sweet love to you,
mill wheel was turning,
as I sat there yearning
for one kiss, the sweetest I knew.
On the hill from the old town chapel
those evening bells would chime,
I'll always remember
that golden November,
sweet cider time,
when you were mine!

By the mill,
where they made sweet cider,
I made sweet love to you,
mill wheel was turning,
as I sat there yearning
for one kiss, the sweetest I knew.
On the hill from the old town chapel
those evening bells would chime,
I'll always remember
that golden November,
sweet cider time,
when you were mine!

I wonder if you miss me,
if you're ever lonely,
want me, only, by your side;
If I but knew, that little
you could just feel lonely,
how my heart would swell with pride;
when I can linger near you,
to call, and I can hear you,
then I'll be satisfied.

By the mill,
where they made sweet cider,
I made sweet love to you,
mill wheel was turning,
as I sat there yearning
for one kiss, the sweetest I knew.
On the hill from the old town chapel
those evening bells would chime,
I'll always remember
that golden November,
sweet cider time,
when you were mine!

By the mill,
where they made sweet cider,
I made sweet love to you,
mill wheel was turning,
as I sat there yearning
for one kiss, the sweetest I knew.
On the hill from the old town chapel
those evening bells would chime,
I'll always remember
that golden November,
sweet cider time,
when you were mine!
