Dear Listmates,
Is it the summer holidays up there, or is it the bushfires/floods/typhoons?
There has been very little from 'youse all' for weeks.
Perhaps we have run out of topics.
So here's one.
The tune "I Can't Believe That You Are In Love With Me" (1926. Jimmy McHugh-Clarence Gaskill).
It has two verses (not in my Anderson fake book):

• Yesterday you came my way and when you smiled at me...
• Skies are grey, I'm blue each day...

And, it would seem, that nobody has ever recorded the lyrics.
The first recording of it on Victor by Roger Wolf Kahn (March 1927), a non vocal, includes it. 
Help.
Cheers,
Bill.
