I'll Only Miss Her When I Think Of Her

I'll Only Miss Her When I Think Of Her
music by Jimmy Van Heusen (left)
lyric by Sammy Cahn (right)

I'll only miss her when I think of her,
And I think of her all the time.
Lately I spend my day hearing her turn a phrase,
Things I find hard to praise, right now would be sublime,
Oh, the truth is...

I'll only miss her when some stranger laughs,
'Cause it's still her laugh my heart hears.
Maybe in time I guess the longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes, when it disappears...

I bet I forget her completely, in a bout a hundred years...
