Lyrics

I hear your name and when I hear your name
I’m lost again
Lost suddenly in deep memory of you.

I see your face so like yours is that face
I’m lost again
Lost as a child because someone smiled like you.

A song a voice, a thousand things
Can make that old feeling start
A glance, a sigh that’s all it takes
To break my remembering heart

Other arms hold me close but when they hold me close
I’m lost again.
Lost as can be, for you’re lost to me, my love.

“I’m Lost Again” was recorded on April 24, 1952 and released as single that year. It was arranged by Percy Faith.
