I'm wondering how I came to be here
Lying alone trying hard not to shed a tear
Remember daddy said " boys don't stay for long"
They always think that there's something wrong

I open up my eyesI see
Little reminders of when you're here with me
I'm hooked to the telephone
Please you've got to call
I know you never promised anything at all

Shanghai memories of 1945 I don't cry I don't cry
Shanghai memories of 1945 I don't cry I don't cry

My last two weeks go byI stay
All alone in my room with no-one all day
I must realize you will never see
　 Life could be good if you only stayed with me
　
　 Shanghai memories of 1945 I don't cry I don't cry
　 Shanghai memories of 1945 I don't cry I don't cry
