THAT NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN NIGHT
(Tobias / Fain)

as recorded by
Thomas "Fats" Waller & his Rhythm
February 1st 1936 New York


The lights were just low enough,
The music just soft enough,
And we were in love enough
On that never to be forgotten night!

Your eyes were just bright enough,
Your arms held me tight enough,
Your lips just were close enough
On that never to be forgotten night!

I knew I didn't need a stimulant, no honey!
My heart told me what I was doing, sure enough, yeah!
The bedroom was full of sentiment, it lent us spice to the wooing!

The lights were just low enough,
The time and place were just right,
When you gave me your heart on that never to be forgotten,
Never to be forgotten night!
