Ralph Rainger - Thanks for the Memory lyrics

[BUZZ] Thanks for the memory Of rainy afternoons And swingy Harlem tunes And motor trips And burning lips And burning toast and prunes How lovely it was [CLEO] Thanks for the memory Of candlelight and wine Castles on the Rhine The Parthenon [BUZZ] And moments on The Hudson River Line [CLEO] How lovely it was [BUZZ] Many is the time that we feasted [CLEO] Many is the time that we fasted [BUZZ] Oh well, it was swell while it lasted We did have fun, and no harm done So thanks for the memory Of crap games on the floor Nights in Singapore [CLEO] You might have been a headache But you never were a bore [BUZZ] I thank you so much [CLEO] Thanks for the memory Of China's funny walls Transatlantic calls [BUZZ] That weekend at Niagara When we hardly saw the falls [CLEO] How lovely that was Thanks for the memory Of lunch from twelve to four Sunburn at the shore That pair of gay pajamas That you bought and never wore [BUZZ] (spoken) Say, what did happen to those pajamas? [CLEO] Letters with sweet little secrets That couldn't be put in a day wire [BUZZ] Too bad it all had to go haywire That's life, I guess I love your dress [CLEO] Thanks for the memory Of faults that you forgave Rainbows on a wave [BUZZ] And stockings in the basin When a fellow needs a shave I thank you so much [CLEO] Thanks for the memory Of Gardens at Versailles [BUZZ] Beef and kidney pie [CLEO] The night you worked and then came home With lipstick on your tie [BUZZ] How lovely that was Thanks for the memory Of lingerie and lace [CLEO] And Pilsner by the case And how I jumped The day you trumped My one and only ace [BUZZ] How lovely that was [CLEO] We said goodbye with a highball [BUZZ] And I got as high as a steeple But we were intelligent people [CLEO] No tears, no fuss [BUZZ AND CLEO] Hooray for us [CLEO] Strictly entre nous, darling, how are you? [BUZZ] And how are all those little dreams That never did come true? [CLEO] Awfully glad I met you [BUZZ] Cheerio, toodle-oo [CLEO] Thank you [BUZZ] Thank you
