Never Again
Isham Jones And His Orchestra Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll never smile again
Until I smile at you
I'll never laugh again
What good would it do
For tears would fill my eyes
My heart would realize
That our romance is true
I'll never love again

I'm so in love with you
I'll never thrill again
To somebody new
Within my heart
I know I will never start
To smile again
Until I smile at you

Within my heart
I know I will never start

To smile again
Until I smile at you

Here, an early Jones, with a much smaller band, proves he was a musical genius pretty much from the start. Although I tend not to listen to many bands that were recorded acoustically, Isham Jones is an exception...and exceptional.
