A Little Birch Canoe And You
Year 1918
Music by Lee S. Roberts Lyrics by J. Will Callahan Jerome H. Remick and Co. New York and Detroit |
Verse The glow is in the West, The birds gone to rest, The hour I love the best is here, When fancy takes its wing, When the bells of evening ring, And mem'ry seems to bring you nearer; And here beside the stream, Within the sunset gleam, My one and only dream comes true, The world is fair and fine And all I want is mine, A little birch canoe and you. Dreaming dear, At the close of day I'm dreaming, Dreaming here Where once I stood with you; Dreaming dear, And the world with joy is teeming While I'm dreaming Here by my birch canoe. The glow is in the West, The birds have gone to rest, The hour I love the best is here, When fancy takes its wing, When the bells of evening ring, And mem'ry seems to bring you nearer; And here beside the stream, Within the sunset gleam, My one and only dream comes true, The world is fair and fine, And all I want is mine, A little birch canoe and you.

You'll Be The One (Not Me)
Year 1920
By Harry Pease and Ed. G. Nelson
Joe Morris Music Co. 1599 Broadway, NY. New York City |
First Verse You say we're going to part, You think you're breaking my heart, Though we've been sweethearts, that's true, I'll never cry over you. Second Verse After you've been through the test, You're just the same as the rest; You've always kept me in doubt, I'm glad that I found out. Chorus You'll be the one to be lonseome, You'll be the one to feel blue; You're leaving me now, You're breaking your vow, But I know that you will be sorry somehow; You'll be the one to be sighing, Trying to find sympathy; I played and I lost, but who'll pay the cost? You'll be the one, not me. CLICK HERE TO PLAY THIS SONG |
When Shall We Meet Again
Year 1921
Words by Raymond B. Egan Music by Richard A. Whiting Introduced by Connor Twins with Gus Edward's Revue Jerome H. Remick and Co. New York and Detroit |
First Verse The fairest sky or the brightest eye May cloud with the word "au revoir" A tear may seek out the fairest cheek To stain when a friendship is o'er Each night brings someone a goodbye kiss Each night some sweetheart is wond'ring this Second Verse And who knows why lips that love must sigh The heart aching word of "farewell" In every breast this unbidden guest The grief of a parting may dwell Who knows the where for the why or when Who knows if ever we'll meet again Chorus When shall we meet again After this "Au revoir" dear Will you still love me then Or will our dream be over dear Will you cast the new love aside for me Or Just smile to think you once sight'd for me All will be answer'd when We two shall meet again.
