I'll See You Again - Noël Coward

I’ll see you again

Whenever spring breaks through again

Time may lie heavy between

But what has been

Is past forgetting

This sweet memory

Throughout my life

Will come to me

Though my world may go awry

In my heart will ever lie

Just the echo of a sigh

Goodbye

Learning scales will never seem so sweet again

Till our destiny shall let us meet again

The Will of Fate

May come too late

When I’m recalling these hours we had

Why will the foolish tears

Tremble across the years?

Why should I feel so sad

Treasuring the memories

Of these days—always—always

I’ll see you again

When ever spring breaks through again

Time may lie heavy between

But what has been

Can leave me never

Your dear memory

Throughout my life will come to me

Though my world has gone awry

Though the years my tears may dry

I shall love you till I die

Goodbye

I’ll See You Again

I’ll see you again whenever spring breaks through again

Time may lie heavy between, but what has been, is past forgetting

Your sweet memory across the years will come to me

Though my world may go awry, in my heart 'twill ever lie

Just the echo of a sigh, goodbye

All my life I shall remember knowing you

All the pleasures that I found in showing you

The different ways that one may face

The changing light and changing shade

Happiness that must die, melodies that must fly

Memories that must fade, dusty and forgotten bye and bye

(repeat refrain)
