I have found myself whistling it and singing it. Has anyone ever heard it?

"The Lilac Tree" by George Gartlan - very touching... :)

Oh, my God!
I recognize the sheet music.
and no....I wasn't around in 1920, but my Aunt and Mother were and we all
would gather around the grand piano while My cousin, Craig (actually my
mother's cousin)
played.
Thanks, david.

A little boy and a little girl
In ecstasy of bliss
Said the little boy...to the little girl
Pray, give me just one kiss.
The girl drew back in great surprise
You're a stranger, Sir, said She
But, I will give you just one kiss...
When the apples grow on the lilac tree.
The boy was very sad at heart
For She was the only one
The girl was quite
At the terrible wrong she'd done
So, bright and early on the very next morn..
He was quite surprised to see.
His little sweetheart....
Standing in the garden....
Tying apples on the lilac tree.
