Lyrics
Music helps me to remember
It helps remind me of things behind me
Tho’ I’m better off forgetting
I try in vain each time I hear that strain
Refrain
It seems to me I’ve heard that song before
It’s from an old familiar score
I know it well, that melody
It’s funny how a theme recalls a favorite dream
A dream that brought you so close to me
I know each word because I’ve heard that song before
The lyric said “Forevermore”
Forevermore’s a memory
Please have them play it again
And I’ll remember just when
I heard that lovely song before
