| I've Heard That Song BeforeMusic helps me to remember It helps remind me of things behind me Though I'm better of forgetting I try in vain each time I hear that strain It seems to me I've heard that song before It's from an old familiar score I know it well that melody It's funny how a theme recalls a favorite dream The dream that bought you so close to me I know each word because I've heard that song before The lyrics said “Forevermore” Forevermore's a memory Please have them play it again And I'll remember just when I heard that lovely song before | 島田歌穂・島健 | Sammy Cahn | Jule Styne | | Music helps me to remember It helps remind me of things behind me Though I'm better of forgetting I try in vain each time I hear that strain It seems to me I've heard that song before It's from an old familiar score I know it well that melody It's funny how a theme recalls a favorite dream The dream that bought you so close to me I know each word because I've heard that song before The lyrics said “Forevermore” Forevermore's a memory Please have them play it again And I'll remember just when I heard that lovely song before |
| I'll remember AprilThis lovely day will lengthen into evening We'll sigh good-bye to all we've ever had Alone where we have walked together I'll remember April and be glad I'll be content you loved me once in April Your lips were warm and love and spring were new But I'm not afraid of autumn and her sorrow For I'll remember April and you The fire will dwindle into glowing ashes For flames and love live such a little while I won't forget, but I won't be lonely I'll remember April and I'll smile | 島田歌穂・島健 | Don Raye・Gene de Paul・Pat Johnston | Don Raye・Gene de Paul・Pat Johnston | | This lovely day will lengthen into evening We'll sigh good-bye to all we've ever had Alone where we have walked together I'll remember April and be glad I'll be content you loved me once in April Your lips were warm and love and spring were new But I'm not afraid of autumn and her sorrow For I'll remember April and you The fire will dwindle into glowing ashes For flames and love live such a little while I won't forget, but I won't be lonely I'll remember April and I'll smile |
| It Could Happen To YouDo you believe in charms and spells in mystic words and magic wands and wishing wells? Don't look so wise, don't show your scorn Watch yourself, I warn you Hide your heart from sight Lock your dreams at night It could happen to you Don't count stars of you might stumble Someone drops a sigh and down you tumble Keep an eye on spring Run when church bells ring It could happen to you All I did was wonder how your arms would be And it happened to me! | 島田歌穂・島健 | Johnny Burke | Jimmy Van Heusen | | Do you believe in charms and spells in mystic words and magic wands and wishing wells?
