They Can't Take That Away From Me

February 2024


They Can’t Take That Away From Me

Music by George Gershwin, with lyrics by Ira Gershwin


The way you wear your hat

The way you sip your tea

The memory of all that

 

No, they can’t take that away

from me

 

The way your smile just beams

The way you sing off-key

The way you haunt my dreams

 

Oh, no, they can’t take that

away from me.


We may never never meet again

on that bumpy road to love

 

Still I’ll always

always keep

 

the memory of . . .

 

The way you hold your knife

The way we danced till three

The way you changed my life


Oh, no, they can’t take that

away from me

 

The way you wear your hat

The way you sip your tea

The memory of all that

 

No, they can’t take that away

from me

 

We may never never meet again

on that bumpy road to love

 

Still I’ll always

always keep

 

the memory of . . .


The way your smile just beams

 

The way you sing off-key

 

The way you haunt my dreams

 

No, they can’t take that

away from me.

 

They’ll ne’er take that

away from

me.
