Lyrics:

(H. Arlen, E.Y. Harburg) [Recorded April 13, 1965, Hollywood] Last night when we were young Love was a star, a song unsung Life was so new, so real so right Ages ago last night Today the world is old You flew away and time grew cold Where is that star that shone so bright Ages ago last night? To think that spring had depended On merely this: a look, a kiss To think that something so splendid Could slip away in one little daybreak So now, let's reminisce And recollect the sighs and the kisses The arms that clung When we were young last night
