Seems like the other day (wahh) my baby went away.
He went away 'cross the (wahh) sea.
It's been two years or so (wahh) since I saw my baby go.
And then this letter came for (wahh) me.
It said that we were through (wahh), he found somebody new.
Oh, let me think, let me think, what can I (wahh) do?
Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no.

(Remember) walkin' in the sand.
(Remember) walkin' hand in hand.
(Remember) the night was so exciting.
(Remember) his smile was so inviting.
(Remember) then he touched my cheek,
(Remember) with his fingertips.
Softly, softly we'd meet with our lips.

Whatever happened to the boy that I once knew?
The boy who said he'd be true.
Oh, what will happen to the life I gave to you?
What will I do with it now?

(Remember) walkin' in the sand.
(Remember) walkin' hand in hand.
(Remember) the night was so exciting.
(Remember) his smile was so inviting.
(Remember) then he touched my cheek,
(Remember) with his fingertips.
(Remember) softly...
(Remember)
(Remember)
(Remember)
Fade.
(Remember) walkin' in the sand.
(Remember) walkin' hand in hand.

1Personnel: Identical twins, Mary Anne & Marguerite "Marge" Ganser and
siblings, Mary & Elizabeth "Betty" Weiss1a, formed the original act. Mary
Weiss was the main, lead singer, Betty, however, took lead on "Maybe," and
a number of B-sides and album tracks, Marge Ganser took lead on "I'm Blue"
and Mary Ann Ganser took the lead on "Sophisticated Boom Boom."

1aBecause Betty was underage, her mother did not allow her to tour until
1966, when she became 18. As a result she often did not appear in photos,
and many fans believed the Shangri-Las were a trio. Few pictures show all 4
of the girls.

1bAn interesting side note is that on this track, the session musician
playing the piano was Billy Joel.

2Covered by: Aerosmith, The Beach Boys, Big Mouth, The Go-Go's, Louise
Goffin, Mouth & MacNeal, The Nylons, Skeeter Davis, et al.
