When The Poppies Bloom Again 1936 JPitt-Payne

The Flanders battlefields
have known the plough
the corn is waving
and it's peaceful now,
but love undying
still keeps me sighing
my heart is crying
for you alone.

When the poppies bloom again
I'll remember you,
there beside the River Seine
where we kissed adieu,
when you told me not to cry
held me tenderly
but that kiss was our goodbye
you were gone from me.
My lonely footsteps stray
where you must ever stay.
I place a sweet bouquet
my token of love
darling, till we meet again
I'll be ever true
when the poppies bloom again
I'll remember you.

When the poppies bloom again
I'll remember you,
there beside the River Seine
where we kissed adieu,
when you told me not to cry
held me tenderly
but that kiss was our goodbye
you were gone from me.
My lonely footsteps stray
where you must ever stay.
I place a sweet bouquet
my token of love
darling, till we meet again
I'll be ever true
when the poppies bloom again
I'll remember you.

I live in memory
of days gone by
when love was ev'rything
to you and I;
I still remember
love's glowing ember
'twas in December
long long ago.

When the poppies bloom again
I'll remember you,
there beside the River Seine
where we kissed adieu,
when you told me not to cry
held me tenderly
but that kiss was our goodbye
you were gone from me.
My lonely footsteps stray
where you must ever stay.
I place a sweet bouquet
my token of love
darling, till we meet again
I'll be ever true
when the poppies bloom again
I'll remember you.

When the poppies bloom again
I'll remember you,
there beside the River Seine
where we kissed adieu,
when you told me not to cry
held me tenderly
but that kiss was our goodbye
you were gone from me.
My lonely footsteps stray
where you must ever stay.
I place a sweet bouquet
my token of love
darling, till we meet again
I'll be ever true
when the poppies bloom again
I'll remember you.
