Thanks For The Memory

Thanks For The Memory - Benny Goodman

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
