It's cher -ry pink and ap -ple blos -som white, When your true lov -er comes your way.
It's cher -ry pink and ap -ple blos -som -white, The po -ets say.
The sto -ry goes that once a cher -ry tree, Be -side an ap -ple tree did grow,
And there a boy once met his bride to be, Long, long a -go.
The boy looked in -to her eyes, It was a sight to en -thrall, The breez -es joined in their sighs, The blos -soms start -ed to fall.
And as they gent -ly ca -ressed, The lov -ers looked up to find, The branch -es of the two trees were in -ter -twined,
And that is why the po -ets al -ways write, If there's a new moon bright a -bove,
It's cher -ry pink and ap -ple blos -som white, When you're in love.
