Yellow Days Tony Bennett Written by Alan Bernstein and Alvaro Carrillo From his "Something" LP: Columbia 30280 It appears that NO ONE ever charted this in the Top 100 as a single but, per ASCAP, it must have been put on LP's by Johnny Mathis, Percy Faith, Sinatra and Ellington, the Sandpipers, the Baja Marimba Band and you-name-'em!! I remember when the sunlight had a special kind of brightness And laughter held a lover's kind of lightness Yellow days, yellow days She would hold me and the smile would spread around us so completely And the softness of a kiss would linger sweetly Yellow days, yellow days But then came thunder And I heard her say "goodbye" Through tears of wonder Now I'm alone and my heart wants to know Yellow days, where'd you go? Life is empty and the sunlight seems so harsh instead of tender And the laughter's just an echo I'll remember Yellow days, yellow days Now I'm alone and my heart wants to know Yellow days, where'd you go? Life is empty and the sunlight seems so harsh instead of tender And the laughter's just an echo I'll remember Yellow days, yellow days
