All that I have of you is a photograph
We're in a row-boat
You're wearing my coat
You're trying to make me laugh
It seems like yesterday
Love was all we knew
And now a photograph
Is all I have of you
It was a wet September Wednesday
They were closing down the park
I tried to bribe the row-boat man
For one half hour's lark
He smiled and said go right ahead
It ain't too cold to spark
And we had fun, didn't we hon'
We stayed out until dark
We played a losing game of love forever
Wе never learnеd the rules
While we made plans and laughed the days out
Life played us for fools
I found work as a late-night clerk
You went away to school
Then the letter came, you told me his name
He takes you rowing too
Now all I have of you is a photograph
We're in a row-boat
You're wearing my coat
You're trying to make me laugh
It seems like yesterday
Love was all we knew
And now a photograph
Is all I have of you
We're in a row-boat
You're wearing my coat
You're trying to make me laugh
It seems like yesterday
Love was all we knew
And now a photograph
Is all I have of you
It was a wet September Wednesday
They were closing down the park
I tried to bribe the row-boat man
For one half hour's lark
He smiled and said go right ahead
It ain't too cold to spark
And we had fun, didn't we hon'
We stayed out until dark
We played a losing game of love forever
Wе never learnеd the rules
While we made plans and laughed the days out
Life played us for fools
I found work as a late-night clerk
You went away to school
Then the letter came, you told me his name
He takes you rowing too
Now all I have of you is a photograph
We're in a row-boat
You're wearing my coat
You're trying to make me laugh
It seems like yesterday
Love was all we knew
And now a photograph
Is all I have of you
