Lyrics
- It was June when they met where the roses grow
She seemed like a phantom flower
A sweet blushing bud in a garden of dreams
To bloom in a love-land bower - It was June when they met in a garden
Her hair was the gold of the sun
The stars of the night were her wonderful eyes
And her kiss was love’s dawn just begun - It was June when they met where the roses grew
Fate willed that they never should part
For love is a rose in a garden of dreams
And love-time, the June of the heart
