About So Far

"So Far" is a show tune from the 1947 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Allegro when it was introduced by the character "Beulah" played by Gloria Wills. On July 28, 1947 (see 1947 in music), the song was recorded by Perry Como, and released by RCA Victor Records as a 78rpm single, catalog number 20-2402-A, with the flip side "A Fellow Needs a Girl". The song reached #11 on the Billboard charts. Other versions were recorded by Frank Sinatra and by Margaret Whiting. Sinatra's version also charted in 1947 reaching the No. 8 position. Dick Haymes included the song in his album Look at Me Now! (1957). Tony Bennett later used the song on his album Long Ago and Far Away (1958). The song was also used in the 1996 stage musical State Fair. more »

We have nothing to remember so far, so far,
So far, we haven't walked by night and shared the light of the star
So far, your heart has never fluttered so near, so near
That my own heart alone could hear it!

We haven't gone beyond the very beginning
We've just begun to know how lucky we are
So we have nothing to remember so far, so far,
But now I'm face to face with you, and now at last we've met
And now we can look forward to the things we'll never forget!

But now I'm face to face with you, and now at last we've met
And now we can look forward to the things we'll never forget!
