We Were So Young - Noël Coward

At a high-school cotillion

Favors pink, favors blue

There I met the one girl in a million

And the girl was you

Sweet, you were a shy love

But you were my love

And that high-school cotillion

Made me know I knew

We were so young

The time was an evening in May

You wore your pale blue organdy, I felt so gay

Life was an eager thing of Spring and moonlight

And you were the girl, and I was the boy from over the way

We were so young the heavens were smiling above

I asked to keep your handkercheif, you kept my glove

Life was an eager thing of Spring and moonlight

And you were the girl, and I was the boy from and we were in love

We were so young

And it was time was an evening in May

You wore your pale blue organdy, I felt so gay

Life was an eager thing of Spring and moonlight

And you were the girl, and I was the boy from over the way

We were so young the heavens were smiling above

I asked to keep your handkercheif, you kept my glove

Life was an eager thing of Spring and moonlight

And you were the girl, and I was the boy from and we were in love
