Charted at #1 in April 1913. #1 for 15 weeks. Written by Irving Berlin after his wife of five months passed away. He was unable to write for a period of time after the tragedy, until he found the strength to compose this song. Also a #2 hit for Manuel Romain in May 1913.

  • This was written by Irving Berlin, upon the death of his wife from (typhoid??)? while they vacationed in Cuba...At least, that's the way I recall it...
