Thanks For The Memory

Thanks for the memory of candlelight and wine, castles on the line

The Parthenon and moments on the Hudson River line

How lovely it was!

Thanks for reminding me of rainy afternoons, swinging Harlem tunes

And motor trips and burning lips and burning toast and prunes

How lovely it was!

Many's the time that we feasted

And many's the time that we fasted

Oh well, it was swell while it lasted

We did have fun and no harm done

So, thanks for the memory of sunburns at the shore, nights in Singapore

You may have been a headache but you never were a bore

I thank you so much

Thanks for the memory at midnight in Mormont

Calories on vault

We travelled with the smart set

So, I guess that we were smart

I thank you so much

We who could laugh over big things

We're parted by only a slight thing

Now I wonder if we did the right thing

No doubt, we did

Of course, we did

So, thanks for the memory

And strictly entre nous, darling how are you?

And how are all the little dreams that never did come true?

Awfully glad I met you, cheerio, and toodle

And thank you so much
