"They Can't Take That Away from Me" was a George and Ira Gershwin song that Vic Fontaine sang. It was included in the hologram Vic Fontaine's repertoire.
In 2374, after spending time in Vic's lounge, Odo had the song stuck in his head and began humming and singing the song without realizing it during a meeting with Sisko. After Sisko pointed out that Odo was singing, the two sang the song together as Sisko read Odo's report. (DS9: "His Way")
Lyrics[]
There are many many crazy things
That will keep me loving you
And with your permission
May I list a few
The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that
No they can't take that away from me
The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No they can't take that away from me
We may never never meet again, on that bumpy road to love
But I'll always, always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No they can't take that away from me
