It was long, long ago in the moonlight
Refers to a distant time in the past, possibly a nostalgic setting.
We were sitting on the banks of the stream

When you whispered so sweetly, I love you

As the waters murmured a tune

Oh, they tell me your love is like a flower
Introduces the metaphor comparing the subject's love to a flower.
In the springtime blossoms so fair

In the fall then they wither away, dear
Suggests a temporary nature to the love, as it withers away in the fall.
And they tell me that's the way of your love
Summarizes the transitory quality of the subject's love using the flower metaphor.
I remember the night, little darling

The flowers were all blooming so fair

I can see that your love is not there
