Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber
Lyrics: Charles Hart
Vocals: Nicholas Tsachakis, Poppy
Piano: Anna Lisowski
Think of me,
Think of me fondly,
When we've said goodbye.
Think of me fondly,
When we've said goodbye.
Remember me,
Once in a while,
Please promise me you'll try.
Once in a while,
Please promise me you'll try.
On that day,
That not so distant day,
When you are far away and free,
That not so distant day,
When you are far away and free,
If you ever find a moment,
Spare a thought for me.
Think of August when the trees were green.
Don't think about the way things might have been.
Don't think about the way things might have been.
Think of me,
Think of me waking,
Silent and resigned.
Think of me waking,
Silent and resigned.
Imagine me,
Trying too hard
To put you from my mind.
Trying too hard
To put you from my mind.
Recall those days,
Look back on all those times,
Think of the things we'll never do.
Look back on all those times,
Think of the things we'll never do.
There will never be a day
When I won't think of you.
Long ago, it seems so long ago,
How young and innocent we were.
You may not remember me,
But I remember you.
Flowers fade,
The fruits of summer fade,
The fruits of summer fade,
They have their season,
So do we.

But, please promise me,
That sometimes, you will think
Of me.
Thanks for visiting!

Beautiful photos and what a nice post. Kind of bittersweet to say goodbye to summer, isn't it? I love that song too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever way to say goodbye to my favorite time of year (I haven't been able to make the transition to fall yet...getting there slowly, though). Thanks for a lovely little rest. ~Zuni
ReplyDeleteOh Poppy, This is so touching and tender. It makes me feel melancholy and nostalgic in a good way. absolutely love it.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to hear you sing on a post again. And this hauntingly beautiful song. I have been too quick to hurry summer on its way, anxious to welcome the third member of the year. Now I'm almost crying for summer, especially the summer you pictured here. It was, and is, always so full of gifts that we praised in June. I feel fickle now. Why is it we hurry every season away when each season is so full of beauty and wonder? Thank you for helping all of us autumn worshipping bloggers to slow down and savor these last days.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done, Poppy,
Dewena
P.S. I've bookmarked your singing to listen to again!
Poppy,
ReplyDeleteYou help me breathe more slowly.
xxxooo

...Καλημερα κοριτσι..τι υπεροχες φωτο..την λατρεψα την καγκελοπορτα..και τον πινακα επισης ..χαρουμενο Φθινοπωρο..σε φιλω ματια μου..
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the cooler days now and the myriad of colours, from greens to yellows after the dry and dusty days of summer!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely transition you've given us into autumn, Poppy! I of course took the words to reflect on our visit to Crete last spring. . .we spend hours looking at our photos remembering the special people we met and places we visited. . .next year hope to add you to that list!
ReplyDeleteLovely singing! Touching and kind of melancholy song. Gorgeous photos, as usual!
ReplyDeleteOh how sweet and romantic, makes me more nostalgic reminiscing some lost and forgotten memories.
ReplyDeleteThank you dear friend. Love all your posts.
Have a good weekend
I thought it was from Phantom and so just went and checked it out ! I love that musical and think you did an amazing rendition, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty singing, Poppy! Always enjoy your photos, too ... and such a pretty fairy angel in your latest post! Have a beautiful weekend! Bess
ReplyDeletePoppy, that was such a treat! Beautiful voice, words and photos…who could ask for more!
ReplyDeleteIs that your cat? If so, he needs to be on your blog more often!! What a beauty!! Your posts are always so beautiful. I can't get your song to play on tablet but be sure I won't miss it. Have a wonderful day, Poppy!
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful ~ words and photos alike. Makes me sad that summer is gone, but we will think of her and remember fondly those days.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful post, Poppy ! The words are lovely!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos and mosaic. I love all the color.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post, Poppy. How lovely summer is and how we hate to see her go. But she'll be back. Do you have very cold winters in Greece?
ReplyDeleteJust lovely, Poppy! What a sweet voice you have. Your photos are gorgeous and I am also wondering what your winters are like in Greece. Happy Fall to you. Blessings, Pamela
ReplyDeleteHi Poppy, thanks so much for showing us all those wonderful photos. It is so beautiful where you live and so different from where I live! I just love looking at all the pictures and I love the way you write, but you already know that! Lol.
