I'll See You Again Lyrics & Chords By Noël Coward

(as recorded by Noel Coward, 1938)

I'll see you again
Whenever spring breaks through again.
Time may lie heavy between,
But what has been
is past forgetting.
This sweet memory
Throughout my life
Will come to me.
Though my world may go awry,
In my heart will ever lie,
Just the echo of a sigh,
Goodbye.

Learning scales will never seem so sweet again
Till our destiny shall let us meet again.
The Will of Fate
May come too late.
When I'm recalling these hours we had
Why will the foolish tears
Tremble across the years?
Why should I feel so sad
Treasuring the memories
Of these days—always—always.

I'll see you again
When ever spring breaks through again.
Time may lie heavy between
But what has been
Can leave me never.
Your dear memory
Throughout my life will come to me,
Though my world has gone awry,
Though the years my tears may dry,
I shall love you till I die,
Goodbye

-----------------------------------------

I'll see you again whenever spring breaks through again.
Time may lie heavy between, but what has been, is past forgetting.
Your sweet memory across the years will come to me.
Though my world may go awry, in my heart 'twill ever lie,
Just the echo of a sigh, goodbye.

All my life I shall remember knowing you,
All the pleasures that I found in showing you,
The different ways that one may face,
The changing light and changing shade,
Happiness that must die, melodies that must fly,
Memories that must fade, dusty and forgotten bye and bye.

(repeat refrain)
