Nice Work If You Can Get It the Musical - Will You Remember Me? Lyrics

(Performed by Matthew Broderick (Jimmy) and Kelli O'Hara (Billie)

[Billie]
When I go my way,
Along some highway,
Will you remember me?

When you are lonesome,
I'd like to own some
Place in your memory.

I know that you'll play a part
In my heart when I start;
That's something I can guarantee.

But when I stray off,
Somewhere away off --
Will you remember me?

[Jimmy]
Now that I am starting,
I cannot deny,
I'd prefer a 'see you later'
To a mere goodbye.

But before departing
Do I hope in vain?
Something makes me wonder whether
You'll forget me altogether
If we never meet again.

[Jimmy] (simultaneously)
When you go your way
Out through my doorway
Will you remember me?

When you are lonesome,
I'd like to own some
Place in your memory.

But when you stray off,
Somewhere away off --
Will you remember me?

[Billie] (simultaneously)
Will you remember me?

When you're alone,
I'd like to own some
Place in your memory.

I know that you'll play a part
In my heart when I start;
That's something I can guarantee.

But when I stray off,
Somewhere away off --
Will you remember me?

Will you remember me?
