[ROSE]
I don't know, Sam
Sometimes I feel discouraged, too
Last night I could hardly sleep
And I woke up depressed and blue
I thought I'd walk to the office
So I cut through the park by the mall
Everything looked so fresh and green
Life seemed not so bad after all!
What do you think I saw, Sam?
A lilac-bush flowering bright
It made me think of that poem you said
Remember?
When we sat in the park one night
[SAM]
Yes, I remember
[ROSE]
It was just like tonight
We were both feeling sort of low
And all of a sudden
You began that poem
[SAM]
In the dooryard fronting an old farmhouse
Nеar the whitewashed palings
Stands thе lilac bush tall-growing
With heart-shaped leaves of green
With many pointed blossoms rising delicate
With the perfume strong I love
With every leaf a miracle
[ROSE]
In the dooryard fronting an old farmhouse
Near the whitewashed palings
[SAM]
With the perfume strong I love
[ROSE]
Stands the lilac-bush
[SAM]
With every leaf a miracle
[ROSE]
Tall-growing
[SAM]
And from that bush in the dooryard
With delicate-colored blossoms
And heart-shaped leaves of green
A sprig with its flower I break
[ROSE]
A sprig with its flower I break
Yes, that's what I thought in the park today
When I saw that bush, fresh and green
I wanted to break off a flower
But I was afraid I might be seen
Maybe a park policeman
Might come and take me away
"Do not pick the flowers"
The signs forever say
[SAM]
Don't! Don't! They always say
Stand back! Keep off the grass!
Don't pick the flowers!
Don't pick the flowers!
Don't take!
[ROSE]
But in our dreams, Sam!
[SAM]
Yes, in our dreams, Rose!
[ROSE]
Yes, in our dreams
[ROSE & SAM]
A sprig with its flower we break
A sprig with its flower we break
[ROSE]
And the lilac-bush is ours
[SAM]
The lilac-bush is ours
[ROSE]
Nothing can take it away
[SAM]
Nothing can take it away
[ROSE]
The lilac-bush is ours
[SAM]
The lilac-bush is ours
[ROSE]
Forever and a day
[SAM]
Forever and a day
[ROSE & SAM]
And when you see the lilac-bush
Bright in the morning air
Remember, darling remember
[SAM]
Remember that I care!
[ROSE & SAM]
Remember that I care!
Remember That I Care was written by Kurt Weill & Langston Hughes.
Anne Jeffreys & Brian Sullivan released Remember That I Care on Mon Apr 04 1949.
