As Dorothy Parker once said to her boy friend,
|
"Fare thee well,"
|
As Columbus announced when he knew he was bounced,
|
"It was swell, Isabelle, swell,"
|
As Abelard said to Heloise,
|
"Don't forget to drop a line to me, please,"
|
As Juliet cried in her Romeo's ear,
|
"Romeo, why not face that fact, dear?"
|
|
It was just one of those things,
|
Just one of those crazy flings,
|
One of those bells that now and then rings,
|
Just one of those things.
|
|
It was just one of those nights,
|
Just one of those fabulous flights,
|
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings,
|
Just one of those things
|
|
If we'd thought a bit
|
Of the end of it,
|
When we started painting the town,
|
We'd have been aware
|
That our love affair
|
Was too hot not to cool down.
|
So goodbye, Dear, and Amen.
|
Here's hoping we meet now and then,
|
It was great fun,
|
But it was just one of those things.
