PLEASE DRIVER (ONCE AROUND THE PARK AGAIN)
(Chilton Price)


Tony Bennett (with Percy Faith & His Orch.) - 1954


Please, driver, drive around the park again
I'm all alone tonight
Though it's wrong, I know, to miss her so
No one else would seem quite right

So please, driver, once around the park again
You've heard this tale before
I could call some friend, but why pretend
In the end I'd miss her more

She used to love the park in winter
The trees tonight are snowy white
We drove around like this till dawn last New Year's Eve
To think she'd leave me

Please, driver, once around the park again
I can't believe she's gone
If she only knew, but why bore you
Such is life, and life goes on

(Orchestral Interlude)

Please, driver, once around the park again
I can't believe she's gone
If she only knew, but why bore you
Such is life, and life goes on

Forget about it, just drive me home!
