THE THIRTEENTH MONTH
Arthur Hamilton

Julie London with the Pete King Orchestra


It's the month of Remember ...

I hear his footsteps, and soon I will see
The man who used to love the girl I used to be.
Will we enact our final scene tear by tear?
For its the thirteenth month of the year.

He'll stand before me; I'll send him away,
And then too late I'll know I've wanted him to stay.

But for a little while at least, he'll be here
To spend the thirteenth month of the year,
The month of Remember.
