Boston Common That Old Quartet Of Mine Lyrics

Every quartet here today would hesitate to say
The greatest song that they had sung together
Would it be "Sweet Adeline" or "Calling Caroline"
Or "Love That's True Through Fair or Stormy Weather"

But does it matter about the song, whether it be weak or strong
And must we strive to sing with such perfection
It's not the most important part that it come straight from the heart
And be sung with understanding and affection

So let us sing our songs together
And make that sound divine
Let's keep the memories golden
For the sake of auld lang syne

I wonder what has happened to old quartet of mine
I hope and pray we'll meet again somewhere, someday, sometime
If only to remind them how dear they are to me
And just how much I miss the touch of four part harmony

I wonder if they still recall the tears that filled our eyes
The night the crowd applauded when we won our first big prize
All that I possess I would forsake if just once more I could partake
Singing one more song, just one more time
With that old quartet of mine

And if someday we ever meet again
I will smile and stand in line
Just to sing one song, just one more time
With that old quartet of mine, of mine
