As performed in the 1942 film "The Fleet's In" by DOROTHY LAMOUR
(with Bob Eberly, Helen O'Connell and Jimmy Dorsey & His Orchestra:
I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago
I remember you
You're the one who said "I love you, too"
I do, didn't you know
I remember, too
A distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain out of the blue
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
Then I shall tell them I remember you
(Orchestral Interlude)
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
Then I shall tell them I remember you
********************
Opening verse, not always used, but recorded by SARAH VAUGHAN,
EYDIE GORME, NAT KING COLE, HELEN O'CONNELL and others:
Was it in Tahiti
Were we on the Nile
Long, long ago, say an hour or so
I recall that I saw you smile
*********************
As recorded by FRANK IFIELD:
I remember you-ooh
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago
I remember you-ooh
You're the one who said "I love you, too"
Yes, I do, didn't you know?
I remember, too, a distant bell and stars that fell
Like the rain out of the blue-ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of it all
Then I will tell them I remember you-ooh
I remember, too, a distant bell and stars that fell
Just like the rain out of the blue-ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of it all
Then I will tell them I remember
Tell them I remember
Tell them I remember you
