Thanks for the Memory

Yes, we traveled far and wide together
Did we travel to fast?
Now I'm runnin' and wonder whether
Any good things ever last
But that dear, is past

So, thanks for the memory
Of candlelight and wine, castles on the Rhine
The Parthenon and moments on the Hudson River Line
How lovely it was

Thanks for the memory
Of rainy afternoons, swingy 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

And thanks for the memory
Of sunburns at the shore, nights in Singapore
You might have been a headache, but, you never were a bore
So, thank you so much

Letters with sweet little secrets
That couldn't be put in a day wire
Too bad it all had to go haywire
But that's alright, I sleep at night

And thanks for the memories
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-oo
And thank you, so much
Thank you so much
