Thanks for the Memory

Thanks for the Memory (Remastered 2016) - Anita O'Day (安妮塔·奥黛)/Cal Tjader

Written by：Ralph Rainger/Leo Robin/Rr

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 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 thank you so much

Thanks for the memory

Of lingerie with lace pilsner by the case

And how I jumped the day

You trumped my one and only ace

How lovely it was

We said goodbye with a highball

I got as high as a steeple

But we were intelligent people

No tears no fuss hooray for us

So thanks for the memory

Strictly entre nous darling how are you

How are all the little dreams

That never did come true

Aw'flly glad I met you cheerio and toodle oo

And thank you so much
