ODE TO 44 AND 13
(Irving Kahal / Sammy Fain) Parody lyric by ChrisR
99: What's that?
Max: "I'll Be Seeing You". It's a great old Tommy Dorsey hit.
- The Impossible Mission, 1968.
---
The railway train was rolling
(the Orient Express)
When I met you hiding
in the medicine chest.
I know that we will meet again,
that when some vital news I need again......
CHORUS
I'll be seeing you in all the small secluded places
All the tiny closed-in spaces all year through.
In the chimney wall, the painting in the hall,
The old grandfather clocks, the ice machines, the letter box.
I'll be seeing you now that my mission's underway
You're there to help me come what may.
Your post's a tin trash bin today.
Although you claim you hate the job
and griping's what you do
I'll be looking in the bin
and I'll be seeing you
--Computer Trumpet Solo--
There's only one thing left to say:
I'll always think of you that way.
On ev'ry trash collection day,
While walking in the summer sun
and in the winter too,
I'll be looking at the trash
but I'll be seeing you.
