I Remember You Sheet Music Nat King Cole

Lyrics I Remember You Nat king Cole

I Remember You

Was it in Tahiti?
Were we on the Nile?
Long, long ago,
Say an hour or so
I recall that I saw your smile.

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.

The music was written by Victor Schertzinger, the lyrics by Johnny Mercer. This collaboration of Victor Schertzinger and Johnny Mercer was introduced in the 1942 motion picture The Fleet’s In, starringDorothy Lamour, William Holden, and Jimmy Dorsey’s Orchestra with vocalists Helen O’Connell and Bob Eberly.

The song was one of several introduced in the film The Fleet’s In (1942). It was sung in the film by Dorothy Lamour (with harmony by Bob Eberly and Helen O’Connell and featuring the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra) and is one of the songs most associated with the singer/actress. Schertzinger, who co-wrote all the film’s songs with Mercer, was also the director of the movie.

According to the TCM documentary Johnny Mercer: The Dream’s On Me, Mercer wrote the song for Judy Garland, to express his strong infatuation with her. He gave it to her the day after she married David Rose.
Dorsey’s recording, with a vocal by Eberly, made it into the charts.
