That Lovely Week-End

That Lovely Weekend - Vera Lynn

I haven't said thanks for

That lovely weekend

Those two days of heaven you

Helped me spend

The thrill of your kiss

As you stepped off the train

The smile in your eyes like

The sun after rain

To mark the occasion

We went out to dine

Remember the laughter,

The music, the wine

That drive in the taxi

When midnight had flown

Then breakfast next morning,

Just we two alone

You had to go,

The time was too short

We both had so much to say

Your kit to be packed,

The train to be caught

Sorry I cried

But I just felt that way

And now you have gone,

Dear, this letter I pen

My heart travels with you

Till we meet again

Keep smiling, my darling,

And someday we'll spend

A lifetime as sweet as

That lovely weekend

You had to go

The time was too short

We both had so much to say

Your kit to be packed

The train to be caught

Sorry I cried

But I just felt that way

And now you have gone

Dear, this letter I pen

My heart travels with you

Till we meet again

Keep smiling, my darling

And someday we'll spend

A lifetime as sweet as

That lovely weekend
