(HF) We strolled the lane together
Laughed at the rain together
Sang loves refrain together
And we’d both pretend it would never end
One day we cried together
Passed love aside together
You’re gone from me but in my memory
We always will be together

(DH) We strolled the lane together
Laughed at the rain together
Sang loves refrain together
And we’d both pretend it would never end
Through storm and sun together
Our hearts as one together
You’re gone from me but in my memory
We always will be together

(HF) You’re gone from me but in my memory
(BOTH) We always will be together

as rec by Turner Layton (vocal & piano)  
1945


Together, together, always together,
That's how it used to be.
Together, together, heedless of weather,
Now there is only me, dear.

We strolled the lane together,
Laughed at the rain together,
Sang love's refrain together;
You knew long ago
That our love would grow.

Through storm and sun together,
Our hearts as one together;
You're gone from me,
But in my memory
We always will be together.

Remember, remember, do you remember
Love was aflame in May?
Now in December,
Love is an ember,
'Cause you have gone away, dear.

One day we cried together,
Cast love aside together;
You're gone from me,
But in my memory
We always will be together.
