Manhattan Transfer - Oh Yes, I Remember Clifford Lyrics
Clif---------------------------------------fordI know hell never be forgottenLong as theres still soundHe was a king uncrownedNot all kings are given crownsI know Ill always rememberAlwaysThe warmthAll his warmthOf his soundWas in his soundLingers so long Im sure hes still aroundStill around -------------those whove heardFor all those whove heardTruly, they repeat him yetEven yetSo those who hear wont forgetAnd the ever-present soundThat abounds in his praiseEchos throughout the universeFor endless spans of time uncountableBy daysThe pretty little piquant passagesClifford playedThey are with us nowAnd Im positive that they will endureShould time and sacred circumstance allowYes, theyll live foreverOh, yes, I remember clifford nowSeems I always feel that cliffords spiritsHangin roun me somehowWe rememberEach and every single dayI hear his lovely trumpet toneSuch exquisite singingIn every horn that seems to have a soundThats all its ownSo somebody tell me howHow can we ever day for certainSomeone that playedLike clifford brown could playCould really be said to have gone awayI only know that I hear him nowAnd I believe that I always willYouve got to believeI remember clifford still, yes I hear him stillI know hell never be forgottenHe was a king uncrownedI know Ill always remembermember clifford brownIll always remember clifford brown
