I have watched this movie since being a little girl, I was absolutely in love with it and I still am. I always loved this part where he sings about her. Such a beautiful song.

I thought I was the only one who liked this movie and song.

It is a beautiful song; lyric and melody is quite touching.

Michael Wilding wasn’t very appreciated by Hollywood in his day. He was stuck doing B movies, with only a few hits. He suffered from epilepsy throughout his life, and died from brain injuries suffered from falling down a flight of stairs when a seizure hit him. I always sympathized with him for that, because my dad had epilepsy as well, and I watched him go through two seizures as a teenager.

One of my favorites of Leslie Caron. Love the way the film was made. The actors are wonderful. Music is beautiful!

A TRULY BEAUTIFUL FILM WITH GREAT MUSIC..THOSE WERE THE DAYS AND I LONG FOR THEM AGAIN!

Me too my friend.....

This song touches my heart. I never heard it before until I saw the entire movie just a few days ago. I can listen to this sweet lullaby, over and over again. I'm dedicating it to my sweet mama, she past away only two months ago💕

I have always loved this movie more than any other version, mostly because she has to go through a change in her mind and is shown the importance of it. It's unlike those "here's your shoes and a sparkly dress, now go grab that prince" versions.

I love how he talks about mens weaknesses.

Wow! Gilbert Russell was my father-in-law. He was born in England as Val Rosing and had a good career there sining with the BBC Orchestra. When he moved to Hollywood, he changed his name to Gilbert Russell.

He sounds great here - I"m glad I could credit him. BTW, Val Rosing is a much cooler name - he should have kept it!

I saw this movie at Family Film Festival when I was a kid. I appreciate it more now than before.

I wish I could find the german version, which is the one I grew up with. I have no clue why, I only saw it once as a kid, but I just so love this movie. She was the most beautiful Cinderella ever!

This is just great. I felt a sudden need to hear this song, googled and voila! Saw the movie in the dark ages when I was a kid!

One of my favorite movies of all time. I saw it when I was a little girl. I will always love the words "apple dumpling" and "window silll" 🤗

This came on TCM, and I began looking for the song. Thanks for posting. Such a sweet song, and Wilding is certainly easy on the eyes. Too bad he's long gone.

Climbing rose on the wall Take it now before the petals fall Apple ripe on the bough Take it for the time to take is now Happy day, sun or rain Live it for it never comes again Lads have died, young and gay Pretty maids can fade away Nothing is forever, always is a lie I can only love you till the day I die So my love, oh, my love Dream no more my love, awake my love Oh, my love, wake my love Come to me and take my love Nothing is forever, always is a lie I can only love you till the day I die So my love, oh, my love Dream no more my love, awake my love Oh, my love, wake my love Come to me and take my love

I love, love, love it!!! Still after all these years I sing it at least a few times a week for my Birdies and they love it too, unless of course they are asking me to shut up:) I prefer to think the first so I can go on singing it:)

Jesus... I havent heard this song in over 30 years (since I was 6 or 7).

I don't know why I didn't see this movie as a child, maybe it never aired on TV, or whatever. But I finally got to see this on TCM last year and it's really enjoyable, and I watched again a couple of nights ago on TCM. I appreciate what a trooper Wilding does in this. He tried so hard to get out of it, because he was not a dancer and not a singer, but he wasn't given a choice, thanks to the contract. I have to say when this is talked about on TCM the commentary is always how stiff he is, and they don't give any kudos to his performance, i.e. what a shame they couldn't get ... I could say that a degree there may be some stiffness, yes, but he managed it, and managed it well, and, frankly, I couldn't help but fall in love with him in this. How many versions of Cinderella are there now? Anyway, I saw "The Slipper and the Rose" at Radio City, and that's interesting -- good cast and, of course, several others. I love the class Rogers and Hammerstein one. "Ever After" is interesting, too. But I like this one. It's got some great dialogue, especially Estelle Winwood -- slippery fingers, magic and a book reader, which seems to have made her an outcast. And a wonderful original score -- an interesting hybrid -- because it's not a musical and it's not strictly a drama. On a second viewing last night I couldn't help but add about the wonderful narration by Walter Pidgeon. The narration and the screenplay is truly terrific. It's gets better every time you watch. You know, Leonard Maltin gave this 2 stars out of 5, a four line review, which started with the word "silly." Well, I think Maltin, like most critics, gets paid too well for what he does.

Que lindas películas las de antes. Uno soñaba con ellas. Con las historias, la música.

This is a lovely song, like Kaper's other big hit, "Hi Lily, Hi Lo." And the other great thing about this movie (besides Leslie Caron, the ballet by Roland Petit, and the marvelous Estelle Winwood as Mrs. Toquet,) is my all-time favorite character actor, Keenan Wynn! Love everything he ever did, from the drunk in "The Clock" to the twin agents in "Royal Wedding." He's marvelous!

though Michael Wilding was not a dancer, he did a commendable job of dancing with Leslie Caron

Thanks for the extended clip, leading up to the song, then away from it. Context. It's not a musical. But somehow, the song is essential to the story. Kaper's melody is lovely, but I especially appreciate Helen Deutch's thoughtful lyric. She also wrote the screenplay, so again, this a song made integral to the story.

love!

I absolutely love this song.. it's a part of my childhood.. does anybody have the sheets for it? I would like to play it on my own. I would be so happy if anybody could help me ..

This sounded great! It's too bad Warner didn't decide to do the whole film in stereo. That's the one thing that disappointed me about the DVD; while it is great to have the film (and in widescreen, to boot!), it's unfortunate that they didn't use the stereo music masters. It's unfortunate because this gorgeous score deserves it!

I noticed what you wrote in the description box. So you are saying this isn't Michael Wilding singing? If not was it then him in the film? I have this on DVD so I guess I just Watch it to see if it sounds the same, but maybe others would like to know too:)

Never thought Leslie Caron was a good fit in this movie - loved her on GiGi! This movie with the short hair was not to my liking!

There is nothing wrong to want to help a someone when they are suffering, especially if you are a guy who cares for others, but it bothers be how he has a weird fetish for girls who are suffering and miserable. Its quite clear that the movie is trying to make the the prince the dominant man who saves the meek girl, but the movie goes further by making him fall in love with her because of it. There can be a huge discussion and debate about the themes of the movie, and I wish there was one in the comments. What are your opinions about the film?
