HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN SO SOON?
Gilbert / Nicholls

as rec by Gracie Fields  1937

also rec by Leslie Hutchinson  '37


Have you forgotten that night in June,
Close in my arms 'neath the silvery moon?
I found the joy of love divine,
You made me believe that the world was mine!

I followed you like a guiding star,
Our hearts were beating in tune!
I was only too glad to give all I had,
Have you forgotten so soon?

Romance comes to all,
In Summer, Spring or Fall,
It came along when I met you!
Then you made it seem
That sweet and happy dream,
When all the time you knew it was untrue!

(scat)
Close in my arms 'neath the silvery moon?
I found the joy of love divine,
You made me believe that the world was mine!

(scat)
Our hearts were beating in tune!
I was only too glad to give all I had,
Have you forgotten so soon?
