"The Happy Time" lyrics

Liza Minnelli Lyrics

"The Happy Time"

Remember the Christmas morning long ago
The frosted glass, the dancing snow
The happy time
Remember the painted horse, the carousel
The chocolate kiss, the caramel
The happy time

Remember the pale pink sky
Your first Easter hat
And if you should ask me why
The reason I ask you this is that
I want to remember you remembering
The happy time

Remember the day you found the dollar bill
Or roller skating down the hill
The happy time
Remember the compliment you once received
The lie you told they all believed
The happy time

Remember your first school play
The sound of applause
Why do I go on this way?
I'm only reminding you because
I want to remember you remembering
The happy time...

Remember the a long deep sigh, a tentative kiss
And if you should ask me why
The reason I ask you that is this:
I'm longing to see you smile and hear you laugh
So I can have the photograph
And remember you remembering
The happy time!
