Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends" "The only thing that's going to bother me * he can see the faces of people he knows smiling at him as he walks/drives, memories */ * this is accually used in poetry to describe that hes thinking of someone, he can hear them in his head */įamiliar faces smiling back at me and I knew this would make them change * saying goodbye to a home town, its actually really poetic what he says here, hes running away, he feels the town hes in see and hears what he does, like its evil or something, usually thats the embodiment you give something that is evil anyways. Song Meaning"So I say goodbye to a town that has ears and eyes" You should have killed me when you had the chance They'll find you on your bathroom floor when I'm done Is a whores lies worth dying for? I'll just take my time She means the world to me, so hold your serpent tongue You're meddling in an anger you can't control I've read these stories a thousand times, and now I'll rewrite them all This is where I'm meant to be, please don't leave me Just know that I'll come running, for one more night to spare with you The writings on the wall, you've read that I'll be gone, but if you call my name Why can't you look me in the eyes one last time? Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends You told me once you were mine alone forever,īut now it's over, dear, and we can neverSo I say goodbye to a town that has ears and eyesįamiliar faces smiling back at me and I knew Just to be so sweet when all alone you're dreamin' Just be so sweet when all alone you're dreamin'Ī brighter smile an' a love more bold and free. Remember me when the candle lights are gleamin', The sweetest days are the days that used to be. The sweetest songs are sung by lovers in the moonlight, You told me once that you were mine alone foreverĪnd I was yours till the end of eternity.īut all those vows are broken now, and we will neverĪ brighter face may take my place when we're apart, dear,Ī sweeter smile, a love more bold and free.īut in the end, fair weather friends may break your heart, dear. The saddest words I ever heard were words of parting The sweetest days are days that used to be. The sweetest songs belong to lovers in the gloaming, It would be so sweet when all alone I'm dreaming Remember me at the close of a long, long day. Remember me when the candle lights are gleaming,
WHEN YOU REMEMBER ME SONG DOWNLOAD
DOWNLOAD & LISTEN to a version performed by T.VERSION #1 (original Scott Wiseman lyrics) Letters to Dorothy Horstman, Apr 8/reprinted in Dorothy Horstman, Sing Your Heart Out, Country Boy, New York, 1976, p. The lyric was not intended to apply to any particular person. Feeling a bit homesick and sentimental during the bustle of radio shows and road trips, I "made up" the song while riding in the car to personal appearance jobs. We children were not allowed to touch this momento of the sentimental Gay Nineties, somehow connected with the courtship of Mother and Dad. The phrase "Remember Me" was on the cup in fancy gold lettering. In our guest room at home when I was a child there was a fancy old cup and saucer which sat on the dresser. This song was written in 1939 when LuLu Belle and I spent a year at radio station WLW, Cincinnati. lyrics as performed by Bob Dylan on the " East Orange Tape," East Orange, NJ, early Feb 1961.REMEMBER ME WHEN THE CANDLE LIGHTS ARE GLEAMING (Scott Wiseman) © 1946 Vogue Music, Inc., Santa Monica, CA.Īny copyrighted material on these pages is used in "fair use" for the purpose of study, review or critical analysis only, and will be removed at the request of copyright owner(s).
