I'll Be Seeing You (An Old Song)

---

Written in 1938, popular through the World War II years. This old romance song is popular with many people to this day. I like it, too. Many versions of the song leave out the first stanza, but I left it in. Some sites I checked seemed to believe it was the final stanza, but they're idiots. If I thought that, I'd leave it out, too! You don't set the stage at the end! I could not find a site with a good audio of it, so I just forgot about that. Too bad.

I'll Be Seeing You
by Sammy Fain / Irving Kahal

Cathedral bells were tolling
As our love sang on.
Was it the spell of Paris,
or just the April dawn?
Who knows if we will meet again,
But when the morning chimes ring sweet again…

I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through

In that small cafe
The park across the way
The children’s carrousel
The chestnut trees
The wishing well

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
In everything that's light and gay
I'll always think of you that way

I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day
In everything that's light and gay
I'll always think of you that way

I'll find you in the morning sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you.
