thanks for the memory - ralph rainger lyrics

[buzz]
thanks for the memory
of rainy afternoons
and swingy harlem tunes
and motor trips
and burning lips
and burning toast and prunes
how lovely it was

[cleo]
thanks for the memory
of candlelight and wine
castles on the rhine
the parthenon

[buzz]
and moments on
the hudson river line

[cleo]
how lovely it was

[buzz]
many is the time that we feasted

[cleo]
many is the time that we fasted

[buzz]
oh well, it was swell while it lasted
we did have fun, and no harm done
so thanks for the memory
of cr-p games on the floor
nights in singapore

[cleo]
you might have been a headache
but you never were a bore

[buzz]
i thank you so much

[cleo]
thanks for the memory
of china’s funny walls
transatlantic calls

[buzz]
that weekend at niagara
when we hardly saw the falls

[cleo]
how lovely that was
thanks for the memory
of lunch from twelve to four
sunburn at the sh0r-
that pair of g-y pajamas
that you bought and never wore

[buzz]
(spoken)
say, what did happen to those pajamas?

[cleo]
letters with sweet little secrets
that couldn’t be put in a day wire

[buzz]
too bad it all had to go haywire
that’s life, i guess
i love your dress

[cleo]
thanks for the memory
of faults that you forgave
rainbows on a wave

[buzz]
and stockings in the basin
when a fellow needs a shave
i thank you so much

[cleo]
thanks for the memory
of gardens at versailles

[buzz]
beef and kidney pie

[cleo]
the night you worked and then came home
with lipstick on your tie

[buzz]
how lovely that was
thanks for the memory
of lingerie and lace

[cleo]
and pilsner by the case
and how i jumped
the day you trumped
my one and only ace

[buzz]
how lovely that was

[cleo]
we said goodbye with a highball

[buzz]
and i got as high as a steeple
but we were intelligent people

[cleo]
no tears, no fuss

[buzz and cleo]
hooray for us

[cleo]
strictly entre nous, darling, how are you?

[buzz]
and how are all those little dreams
that never did come true?

[cleo]
awfully glad i met you

[buzz]
cheerio, toodle-oo

[cleo]
thank you

[buzz]
thank you
