I Knew Him When

I Knew Him When

(album: Liza! Liza! - 1964)

I knew him when
He bought me violets now and then
I knew him when
The ring he wore was purchased at the "Five and Ten"
I knew him when
We used to ride on top of a bus
And dream of that someday flat
And then a date for dinner at eight
At the automat

So that's the boy whose name is up in blazing lights
That's all there is
The boy made good, but local girl is still in tights
There is no more
Together when the going was rough
He recognised me then
Sister, it's tough when you know them when
