WHEN THE POPPIES BLOOM AGAIN
(Lee Towers, Morton Morrow, Don Pelasi)

The Flanders battlefields have seen 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.

Chorus
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 was our goodbye, you have gone from me.
My lonely footsteps stray where you must ever stay.
I place a sweet bouquet, a 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 everything to you and I.
I still remember love's glowing ember.
'Twas in December long, long ago.

Chorus
