WHEN THE SWALLOWS SAY GOODBYE
(Jack Steele / Don Pelosi / Al Tudor)


Vera Lynn (with Roland Shaw, His Orch. & Chorus) - 1952
The Stargazers (with Johnnie Gray & His Band Of The Day) - 1955





When the swallows say goodbye
High above the Summer sky
Darling, can you wonder why
I still remeber you

As I walk a lonely lane
I hear laughter in the rain
In my heart it's Spring again
When I remember you

I recall the cornfields
Where you kissed me tenderly
There we vowed our love forever true

Though the years go passing by
Love like ours can never die
When the swallows say goodbye
I still remember you

(Orchestral Interlude)

Though the years go passing by
Love like ours can never die
When the swallows say goodbye
I still remember you
