Thanks For The Memory

Thanks For The Memory - The Platters

Written by：Ralph Rainger/Leo Robin

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

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 there was no harm done

So 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 I thank you so much

We said goodbye with a highball

Then I got as high as a steeple

But we were intelligent people

We did have fun and no harm was done

Thanks for the memory

Of China's funny walls

Transatlantic calls

A weekend at Niagara

When we hardly saw the falls

So I thank you so much
