Again Lyrics

Artist: Doris Day
Album: Again

Again
Doris Day
Written by Dorcas Cochran and Lionel Newman

Peaked at #2 in 1949
MANY competing versions charted that year: Gordon Jenkins #2); Mel Torme (#3);
Vic Damone (#6); Tommy Dorsey (#6); Art Moony (#7); and Vera Lynn (#23)

Again, this couldn't happen again
This is that once in a lifetime
This is the thrill divine

What's more, this never happened before
Though I have prayed for a lifetime
That such as you would suddenly be mine

Mine to hold as I'm holding you now and yet never so near
Mine to have when the now and the here disappear
What matters, dear, for

When this doesn't happen again
We'll have this moment forever
But never, never again (never, never)
We'll have this moment for ev er
But never, never again (never, never)

Comments/Interpretations
by trudy oistacher on 7/6/2008 9:50pm Met my husband in 1949 and the first song we danced to was "Again". That was our song forever until his passing after 56 years of marriage. I would love to hear from Doris Day.
by John Clark on 7/22/2008 12:28pm My lovely, late wife Donna sang so beautifully and "Again" was one of her favorites --and mine. After she passed on, I found a cassette tape on which she sings this and other songs. I had it converted to CD and listen to it often. I suggest that young lovers study the lyrics to "Again" carefully and try to comprehend their meaning. John Clark Roseville, CA
by Joan Davies on 3/3/2013 7:42pm This song says it all. Don't let great moments pass you buy, write them down or take a picture for they will never happen again. I know we don't realize this until we get older, but some young people may catch on to this now.
