  • They say I'll love again someday
    A true love will come my way the next time
    But after you there'll be never be a next time
    For me
    They say that I'll find happiness in someone
    Else warm caress the next time
    I'll soon forget your kiss
    And heartaches such as this will
    Just be ancient history
    They say that I'm a fool to weep, that
    I won't go on losing sleep the next time
    And someone else will mend the heart you've
    Broken in two
    But how can I fall in love the next time
    When I'm still so much in love
    With you
    When I'm still so much in love
    With you Writer/s: Buddy Kaye, Philip Springer

    At the time he didn't have a record on the charts in the U.S.A. or U.K.; but just under three weeks later on December 2nd, 1962 his "The Next Time" entered the United Kingdom's Top 40 Singles chart at #18, four weeks later it would peak at #1* {for 3 weeks}..
    Cliff Richard, born Harry Rodger Webb, celebrated his 77th birthday one month ago on October 14th {2018}...
    * The two weeks prior to reaching #1 it was at #2, and then for the three weeks after falling from the top spot is was once again at #2, so for a total of eight consecutive weeks the song was either at #1 or #2.
