The sheet music:
Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
No keepsakes have we of days that are gone
No fond recollections to look back upon
No song that we love, no scene to recall
We have no traditions at all
Refrain:
We have nothing to remember, so far, so far
So far, we haven’t walked by night
And shared the light of a star
So far, your heart has never fluttered so near, so near
That my own heart alone could hear it
We haven’t gone beyond the very beginning
We’ve just begun to know how lucky we are
So we have nothing to remember so far, so far
But now I’m face to face with you
And now at least we’ve met
And now we can look forward to
The things we’ll never forget
