They were sung by Libby Holman, Jo Stafford, Dinah Shore, Helen Forrest, Bing Crosby, Vera Lynn and a host of others. Lyr. Add: Something To Remember You By 1930 You are leaving me, And I will try To face the world alone. What will be will be, But time cannot Erase the love we've known ! Let me but have a token, Through which your love is spoken. And I will say You're my own, dear ! Oh, give me something to remember you by When you are far away from me, dear. Some little something meaning love cannot die. No matter where you chance to be. Though I'll pray for you, Night and day for you, It will see me through, Like a charm until your returning. So give me a little something to remember you by When you are far away from me. When you are far away from me. The song was featured in the film, "Her Kind of Man." Corrections and additional information welcome. |
