Johnny Mercer
I Remember You / It’s Easy To Remember
I Remember You
[Verse]
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
What I will tell them, I remember you
It's Easy To Remember
[Spoken Intro]
And here's a number from a Paramount Picture that starred Bing Crosby
The movie was called Mississippi
And the tune goes...
[Verse]
Your sweet expression, the smile you gave me
The way you looked when we met
It's easy to remember, so hard to forget
I hear you whisper, I'll always love you
I know it's over and yet
It's easy to remember, so hard to forget
[Bridge]
Oh, how I dream to have your hands caress me
Fingers press me tight
But when I dream, I get that lonesome feeling
Stealing through the night
[Outro]
Each little moment is clear before me
And though it brings me regret
It's easy to remember, so hard to forget
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
Then I will tell them I remember you
[Outro dialogue]
Thank you so much
I'm so glad you like those tunes
This song came from an old movie called The New Moon
It was an MGM picture that came out in 1940
And it starred Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy
I can only tell you this, they never sang it like this
