NOW AT LAST
Haymes
as rec by Blossom Dearie (vocal & piano)

September 1956 New York
Now at last I know what a fool I've been,
For I've lost the last love I shall ever win.
And at last I see how my heart was blind
To the joys before me that I left behind.
When the wind was fresh on the hill
And the stars were new in the sky,
And a lark was heard in the still,
Where was I, where was I?
When the Spring is cold, where do robins go?
What makes Winters lonely? Now at last I know!
When the wind was fresh on the hill
And the stars were new in the sky,
And a lark was heard in the still,
Where was I, where was I?
When the Spring is cold, where do robins go?
What makes Winters lonely? Now at last I know!
