IT'S EASY TO REMEMBER
(Rogers, Hart)

The movie Mississippi starring Bing and W.C. Fields produced two No. 1 hits for Bing -- "Soon" and "It's Easy to Remember." Bing recorded both these tunes Feb. 21, 1935, backed by the Georgie Stoll Orchestra. Within a month "It's Easy to Remember" had charted, and reached No. 1 for two weeks.

Your sweet expression
The smile you gave me
The way you looked when we met.
It's easy to remember
But so hard to forget.
I hear you whisper
"I'll always love you."
I know it's over, and yet,
It's easy to remember
But so hard to forget.

So I must dream
To have your hand caress me,
Fingers press me tight.
I'd rather dream
Than have that lonely feeling
Stealing through the night.
Each little moment
Is clear before me
And though it brings me regret
It's easy to remember
But so hard to forget.
