After Tonight We Say Goodbye 1932 Gracie Fields

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 10 May 2003

Didn't I prove I loved you,
Didn't I prove I cared,
Didn't I give you all that I could give?
Sweetheart I will always love you,
For the happy hours we shared,
but now we are through,
and all I can do,
is just forget and forgive.
You played a game of only pretending
you were to blame,
and this is the ending,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
I gave you all,
it seemed to amuse you,
though in my heart,
I can't bear to lose you,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
How can I pretend I'm glad
that we are parting this way?
Yet it seems that I've been mad,
but you'll be sorry some day.
Here is my love,
the last glowing ember,
Give me the kiss
I'll always remember,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
You played a game
of only pretending,
you were to blame,
and this is the ending,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
I gave you all,
it seemed to amuse you,
though in my heart,
I can't bear to lose you,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
How can I pretend I'm glad
that we are parting this way?
Yet it seems that I've been mad,
but you'll be sorry some day.
Here is my love,
the last glowing ember,
Give me the kiss
I'll always remember,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
Just for a while to hold you,
still in my fond embrace,
Then it must be the parting of the ways.
Someone else will then enfold you;
Someone who will take my place.
But when we're apart,
you'll stay in my heart,
until the end of my days.
You played a game of only pretending,
you were to blame,
and this is the ending,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
I gave you all,
it seemed to amuse you,
though in my heart,
I can't bear to lose you,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
How can I pretend I'm glad
that we are parting this way?
Yet it seems that I've been mad,
but you'll be sorry some day.
Here is my love,
the last glowing ember,
Give me the kiss
I'll always remember,
after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.

after tonight we say, 'Goodbye'.
