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)

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.

Thank Donalyn and Debby for cutting me out of all your lives. Where is my .45 pistol? Donalyn knows how to contact me. No love lost for you from me John, and I thought you were a decent guy.

Wonderful Doris, the most talented star, ever. Tony Randall would always agree. She could sing, dance, act and smile as fresh as a lovely morning rain on the window pane. Unforgettable, forever "Doris Day".
