Oh, when I was in love with you,
Then I was clean and brave,
And miles around the wonder grew
How well did I behave.
And now the fancy passes by,
And nothing will remain,
And miles around they’ll say that I
Am quite myself again.
"Oh, When I Was In Love With You" is a song by Beverly Benjamin Cole. It is the ninth in a set of eleven poems from A. E. Housman's "A Shropshire Lad".
