Thanks for the Memory Lyrics

Thanks for the memory
of sentimental verse, nothing in my purse
And chuckles when the preacher said "For better or for worse"
How lovely it was
Thanks for the memory
Of Schubbert's serenade
Little things of jade
And traffic jams and anagrams
And bills we never paid
How lovely it was

We who could laugh over big things
We're parted by only a slight thing
I wonder if we did the right thing
Oh well that's life I guess

I love your dress
Do you?
It's pretty
Thanks
For the memory
Of faults that you forget
Rainbows on the wave
And stockings in the basin
When a fellow needs a shave
Thank you so much

Thanks for the memory
Of tinkling tacobells
Alma mater Yale
And Cuban rhum and towels from the bery best hotel
Oh how lovely it was

Thanks for the memory
Of cushions on the floor
Ashes with diddy Moore
That pair of gray pijamas that you bought but never wore
Say, by the way, what became of those pijamas?
We said goodbye with a highball
Then I get us high as a striphole
Did you?
But we were intelligent people
No tears, no fuss
A rain for us

And strictly entre-nous, darling how are you?
And how are all the little dreams that never did come true?
Aw'flly glad I met you, cheerio, and toodle-oo

Thank you
Thank you so much
