TIME AND AGAIN
Smith

as rec by Sarah Vaughan w The Stuff Smith Trio  Oct 1st 1945 New York


Just forget about our escapade in Paris,
Please forget about our rendezvous in Spain,
Those are dreams, my dear, I want you to cherish
Time and again, time and again.

Just forget about that night that we went sailing
On a river that the people call the Seine;
Can't you hear the foghorns that were wailing
Time and again, time and again?

Please remember all the little things I taught you,
So our empty hours won't be filled with pain,
And finger all those trinkets that I bought you,
Time and again, time and again.

Just forget about that time deep in the canyon,
And the trees, they were sparkling in the rain.
Those are dreams, my dear, you must abandon
Time and again, time and again.

Please remember all the little things I taught you,
So our empty hours won't be filled with pain,
And finger all those trinkets that I bought you,
Time and again, time and again.

Just forget about that time deep in the canyon,
And the trees, they were sparkling in the rain.
Those are dreams, my dear, you must abandon
Time and again, time and again.
