Thanks for the Memory

Yes we traveled far and wide together.
Did we travel too fast?
Now I reminisce and wonder whether
Any good things ever last.
But that dear is past.
Thanks for the memory
Of candlelight and wine, castles on the Rhine
The Parthenon and moments on the Hudson River Line
How lovely it was
Thanks for the memories
Of rainy afternoons, swingy Harlem tunes
Motor trips and burning lips and burning toast and prunes
How lovely it was
Many's the time that we feasted
And many's the time that we fasted
Oh, well, it was swell while it lasted
We did have fun and no harm done
So thanks for the memory
Of nights in Singapore
Crap games on the floor
You might have been a headache, but you never were a bore
So thank you so much
Thanks for the memory
Of China's funny walls
Transatlantic calls
Weekend at Niagra
When we never saw the falls
How lovely it was
And thanks for the memory
Of Steak and kidney pie
Gardens at Versalles
The night you worked and then
Came home with lipstick on your tie
How lovely it was.
We said goodbye with a highball,
Then I got as high as a steeple,
But we were intelligent people,
No tears, no fuss,
Hooray for us.
And thanks for the memory
And strictly entire nous,
Darling, how are you?
And how are all
Those little dreams
That never did come true?
And thank you so much.
