Lyrics:
[Refrain 1] Thanks....for the memory... [Verse 1] Of candlelight and wine, castles on the Rhine The Parthenon and moments on the Hudson River Line How lovely it was! [Refrain 2] Thanks....for the memory... [Verse 2] Of rainy afternoons, swingy Harlem tunes And motor trips and burning lips and burning toast and prunes How lovely it was! [Bridge] 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. [Refrain 3] And thanks....for the memory... [Verse 3] 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. [Refrain 4] Thanks....for the memory... [Verse 4] Of sentimental verse, nothing in my purse And chuckles when the preacher said "For better or for worse" How lovely it was! [Refrain 5] Thanks....for the memory... [Verse 5] 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! [Bridge] We said goodbye with a highball Then I got as "high" as a steeple (Did you?) But we were intelligent people No tears, no fuss, Hooray! For us! [Refrain 6] Thanks....for the memory... [Verse 6] And strictly entre-nous, darling how are you? And how are all the little dreams that never did come true? Aw'flly glad I met you, cheerio, and toodle-oo [Outro] And thank you so much.
