Ah Me, Ah My

I'd like to live on a farm again
Like I did for part of the war
I've got a few happy memories
Though we were rather poor
But I can't go back, those days have gone
I'm only reminiscing

Ah me, things aren't what they used to be
Ah my, in days gone by

Just take a look at these photographs
I took of baby and you
They're rather brown but you still can see
The love come shining through
But a photograph's no substitute
I'd rather have the real thing

Ah me, things aren't what they used to be
Ah my, in days gone by

I've got a pile of old clothes upstairs
That have come in style again
I know they suited me but nowadays
It doesn't seem the same
'Cause I can't go back, those days have gone
I'm only reminiscing

Ah me, things aren't what they used to be
Ah my, in days gone by
