Thanks For The Memory

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

Thank you for the memory

Of rainy afternoons

Swingin' Harlem toons

Motor trips, burning lips

Burning toast and prunes

How lovely it all 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 thank you 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 thank you for the memory

Strictly entre-nous

Darling, how are you?

How are all the little dreams

That never did come true

Awfully glad I met you

Cheerio and tootleoo

And thank you so much
