Sing me somethin' sentimental

Make it anything that's blue

Sing it sweet and sing it tender

Just the way she used to do

If I cry pay no attention

Every tear that falls is real

Sing me somethin' sentimental

'Cause that's the way I feel



Sing it for somebody special

That's just what she was to me

Where we used to sit together

Now I sit alone, you see

Seems like yeaserday she loved me

But I guess it wasn't real

Sing me somethin' sentimental

'Cause that's the way I feel



Sing me somethin' sentimental

Just as if your heart will break

Since she's gone my heart has taken

More than any heart should take

If you see her say, I love her

She's the one I'll always miss

Sing me somethin' sweet and tender

Make every word a kiss



She was lovelier than ever

On the day she was his bride

As I stood and watched him kiss her

I fell all apart inside

Now I realize I've lost her

Oh, it all seems so unreal

Sing me somethin' sentimental

'Cause that's the way I feel
