Again

Doris Day
|
Written by Dorcas Cochran and Lionel Newman
|
|
Peaked at #2 in 1949
|
MANY competing versions charted that year: Gordon Jenkins #2); Mel Torme (#3);
|
Vic Damone (#6); Tommy Dorsey (#6); Art Moony (#7); and Vera Lynn (#23)
|
|
Again, this couldn't happen again
|
This is that once in a lifetime
|
This is the thrill divine
|
|
What's more, this never happened before
|
Though I have prayed for a lifetime
|
That such as you would suddenly be mine
|
|
Mine to hold as I'm holding you now and yet never so near
|
Mine to have when the now and the here disappear
|
What matters, dear, for
|
|
When this doesn't happen again
|
We'll have this moment forever
|
But never, never again (never, never)
|
We'll have this moment for ev er
|
But never, never again (never, never)
|
