[Written by Marty Gold and Al Alberts Jr]
Tell me why, though I try to forget
Tell me why, why I think of you yet
I know I'll never be free
What has happened to me
Tell me why, when we danced until three
Tell me why, why my heart couldn't see
I never dreamed of romance
Never gave it a chance
When I think of how you looked that day
In your gown of silk and lace
Should have known the day you came my way
That this is the time and the place
Tell me why I keep fooling my heart
When I know it was love from the start
Why don't we give it a try
If you know, tell me why
(And when I think of how you looked that day)
In your gown of silk and lace
(Should have known the day you came my way)
That this is the time and the place
Tell me why I keep fooling my heart
When I know it was love from the start
Why don't we give it a try
If you know, tell me why
If you know....
Why don't you tell me why

We strolled the lane together
Laughed at the rain together,
Sang love's refrain together
And we'd both pretend it would never end
But one day we cried together
Cast love aside together
You're gone from me,
But in my memory
We always will be together.
Oh darlin' the memory
Of all the happy moments we shared together
Will always remain in my heart
The picnics at the park,
The boat rides on the lake,
The way we danced all night,
The warmth of your kiss,
The way you held me tight
Are all part of a tender love
I'll never, never forget.
You're gone from me
But in my memory,
Darlin', wherever you are,
We'll always be.... together. |
