I′m wondering how I came to be here
Lying alone trying hard not to shed a tear
Remember daddy said 〃 boys don′t stay for long〃
They always think that there′s something wrong
I open up my eyes and I see
Little reminders of when you′re here with me
I′m hooked to the telephone
Please you′ve got to call
I know you never promised anything at all
Shanghai memories of 1945 I don′t cry I don′t cry
Shanghai memories of 1945 I don′t cry I don′t cry
My last two weeks go by and I stay
All alone in my room with no-one all day
I must realize you will never see
Life could be good if you only stayed with me
Shanghai memories of 1945 I don′t cry I don′t cry
Shanghai memories of 1945 I don′t cry I don′t cry
