I Remember You
Julie London Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I remember you
You're the one who made my dreams come true
A few kisses ago
I remember you
You're the one who said I love you too
I do, didn't you know

I remember too
A distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain out of the blue

When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of them all
Then I shall tell them I remember you

I remember too
A distant bell
And stars that fell
Like rain out of the blue

When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall





The thrill of them all
Then I shall tell them I remember you
