Lyrics

1. Come take a stroll with me, Lenore
   The same old path we’ve strolled before
   Among the trees where you and I
   Often sigh for days gone by
   ‘Twas here, my dear, that first we met
   I loved you then, I love you yet
   On summer nights when work is through
   I long to be here with you

Chorus:
Under the orange blossom tree
There is a seat for you and me
Down through the branches beams the moon
Just light enough to spoon
I’m made for you and you for me
Will all our future days just be
As happy, I wonder
As those we spent under
The orange blossom tree

2. How well I do remember, Paul
   When first you made an evening call
   You brought a bunch of roses then
   Others when you called again
   Beneath, this tree, ’twas getting dark
   You cut some letters in the bark
   Next day, I saw with pleasure, too
   They simply said, “I love you”
