You won’t forget me, though you may try
I’m part of memories, too wonderful to die
And it will happen, that now and then
You’ll fall to wonderin’ if we shouldn’t have tried again
You won’t forget me, on nights like this
The moon will cast on you the shadow of my kiss
No matter where you are with whom you are
You’ll think of me, you won’t forget me
Just wait and see, you won’t forget me
Just wait and see, you won’t forget me
Just wait and see
