ELLA FITZGERALD - Where Or When lyrics

It seems we stood and talked like this, before

We looked at each other in the same way then

But I can't remember where or when

The clothes you're wearing are the clothes, you wore

The smile you are smiling you were smiling then

But I can't remember where or when

Some things that happened for the first time

Seem to be happenin' again

And so it seems that we have met before

And laughed before, and loved before

But who knows where or when

Some things that happened for the first time

Seem to be happenin' again

And so it seems that we have met before

And laughed before, and loved before

But who knows where or when

When you're awake, the things you think

Come from the dream you dream

Thought has wings, and lots of things

Are seldom what they seem

Sometimes you think you've lived before

All that you live to day

Things you do come back to you

As though they knew the way

Oh the tricks your mind can play
