Holiday Sweetheart Just For Two Weeks In September by Ruth Etting Lyrics
I'm just a holiday sweetheart
Just for two weeks in September
Then all of the year to remember
Someone I've got to forget
25 shillings a week
It's only a bare existence
Yet, somehow I manage to pay
For a fortnight's holiday
25 shillings a week
And always I see in the distance
A lover who will come my way
On that fortnight's holiday
But holidays have to stop
And once more I've returned
I'm back again in the shock
When my face and my fingers burn
I'm just a holiday sweetheart
Just for two weeks in September
Then all of the year to remember
Someone I've got to forget
Holiday sweetheart
Each time I think that it's true love
Then I find that I'm made a fool of
He won't remember we've met
When I left, he said that he'd write
But I'm quite sure he won't
Once, I used to think that they might
But now, I know they don't
Not to a...
Holiday sweetheart
Happy enough when I start out
Then I'm back, crying my heart out
Lying to friends when I say
I've had a wonderful holiday
Just for two weeks in September
Then all of the year to remember
Someone I've got to forget
25 shillings a week
It's only a bare existence
Yet, somehow I manage to pay
For a fortnight's holiday
25 shillings a week
And always I see in the distance
A lover who will come my way
On that fortnight's holiday
But holidays have to stop
And once more I've returned
I'm back again in the shock
When my face and my fingers burn
I'm just a holiday sweetheart
Just for two weeks in September
Then all of the year to remember
Someone I've got to forget
Holiday sweetheart
Each time I think that it's true love
Then I find that I'm made a fool of
He won't remember we've met
When I left, he said that he'd write
But I'm quite sure he won't
Once, I used to think that they might
But now, I know they don't
Not to a...
Holiday sweetheart
Happy enough when I start out
Then I'm back, crying my heart out
Lying to friends when I say
I've had a wonderful holiday
