Yellow Days lyrics

Yellow Days 

 Tony Bennett 

 Written by Alan Bernstein and Alvaro Carrillo 

  

 From his "Something" LP: Columbia 30280 

 It appears that NO ONE ever charted this in the Top 100 as a single but, per
ASCAP, it must 

 have been put on LP's by Johnny Mathis, Percy Faith, Sinatra and Ellington,
the Sandpipers, 

 the Baja Marimba Band and you-name-'em!! 

  

  

 I remember when the sunlight had a special kind of brightness 

 And laughter held a lover's kind of lightness 

 Yellow days, yellow days 

  

 She would hold me and the smile would spread around us so completely 

 And the softness of a kiss would linger sweetly 

 Yellow days, yellow days 

  

 But then came thunder 

 And I heard her say "goodbye" 

 Through tears of wonder 

 Now I'm alone and my heart wants to know 

 Yellow days, where'd you go? 

  

 Life is empty and the sunlight seems so harsh instead of tender 

 And the laughter's just an echo I'll remember 

 Yellow days, yellow days 

  

 Now I'm alone and my heart wants to know 

 Yellow days, where'd you go? 

  

 Life is empty and the sunlight seems so harsh instead of tender 

 And the laughter's just an echo I'll remember 

 Yellow days, yellow days
