Lyrics I Remember Clifford - Helen Merrill

I know he′ll never be forgotten
He was a king uncrowned
I know I'll always remember
The warmth of his sound lingers so long
I′m sure he's still around
For those who heard they repeat him yet
So those who hear won't forget
The sound of each phrase
Echoes the time uncountable by days
The things he played are with us now
And they endure should time allow
Oh yes, I remember Clifford
I always seem to hear him play somehow
Every day I hear his lovely tone
In every trumpet sound
That has a beauty all its own
So how can we say
Someone so real has really gone away
I hear him now, I always will
Believe me, I remember Clifford still
