Nat King Cole & Natalie Cole Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Unforgettable, that's just what you are
You're unforgettable near me or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone in my life meant more

You're unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's just how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

No never before
Has someone been more ooh

Unforgettable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, darling, it's incredible




That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too

Both left this world too soon. Both had songs left unsung. But it is a great solace that they are with each other again.
