FOR ALL WE KNOW (Billie Holiday)
(Sam M. Lewis / J. Fred Coots)

as rec by Billie Holiday w Ray Ellis & his Orch  
Feb 19th 1958 New York


Sweetheart, the night is growing old;
Sweetheart, my love is still untold.
A kiss that is never tasted
For ever and ever is wasted.

For all we know,
We may never meet again,
Before you go,
Make this moment sweet again.
We won't say goodnight
Until the last minute,
I'll hold out my hand
And my heart will be in it

For all we know,
This may only be a dream,
We come and go
Like a ripple on a stream.
So love me tonight,
Tomorrow was made for some,
Tomorrow may never come,
For all we know
