AFTER YOU
S Ellis

as rec by The Four Freshmen Feb 16th 1954

also rec by Ella fitzgerald w Nelson Riddle & his Orch '78


After you there is no-one for me,
After you there is no-one I can see;
Tell me, how many angels can there be?
If there were more like you, what a great world this would be!

After you all my laughter is gone,
After you took my heart to live on!
There was no-one before you who could thrill me like you do,
And there'll never be anyone, never be anyone after you!
