Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When your true lover comes your way
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
The poets say
The story goes that once a cherry tree
Beside an apple tree did grow
And there a boy once met his bride to be
Long long ago
The breezes joined in their sighs, the blossoms started to fall
And as they gently carressed, the lovers looked up to find
The branches of the two trees were intertwined
And that is why the poets always write
If there's a new moon bright above
It's cherry pink and apple blossom white
When you're in love

@probirmukherjea6151
Don't know about the original.... but this one used to be NO 1 in India
@TheJonaco
Eddie's signature hit was "O Mein Papa", which was a #1 hit for Eddie Fisher over here. Still like Prado's version of this better (and Alan Dale's vocal).
@ShrekTheShrekyOgre
Me when Mist Roll In thingy idfk:
@wmbrown6
However, this was only the second single to fail to top Record Mirror's chart, getting no higher than #3 (the first? Perez Prado's, which only peaked at #2 in RM).
@PeterEmmert-theGreyGoose
Well, if the US can cover UK records, why not do the opposite (though Eddie's version had more trumpetmental flair)?
