Early life and training
She was born in York, Pennsylvania as Lois Harriet Marcus. She began singing while in elementary school and began a professional career after working with opera coaches in Philadelphia. She had been singing professionally for three years when a Metropolitan Opera assistant manager who had seen her sing in a performance in Colorado of Ludwig van Beethoven's only opera, Fidelio, convinced her to head to New York City. There she earned a contract with the Met after her participation in the opera company's 1949 Auditions of the Air competition.

I see your face everywhere I go I feel you behind me I turn but you're not there I call your name And people stop and stare It's been some time since we last met How can I forget you It came as news to me Love has no guarantee Aw I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Oh I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Parting's not such sweet a sorrow But who knows how today will be December will never seem the same I'll always remember Being close to you The colour of your eyes My favourite shade of blue Been thinking of the fun we shared Of course there were bad times But perhaps what's good for me Was all the same to you Aw I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Oh I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Parting's not such sweet a sorrow But who knows how today will be Calm down Take it easy It's not the end of the world But the chance to start something new They say time waits for no man But as long as I live I'll wait for ever and ever for you It's been some time since we last met It was on my birthday I'll never forget you Though I suppose eventually I will Aw I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Oh I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Parting's not such sweet a sorrow But who knows how today will be There are no goodbyes Calm down Take it easy It's not the end of the world But the chance to start something new They say time waits for no man But as long as I live I'll wait for ever and ever for you Aw take it easy It's not the end of the world But the chance to start something brand new They say time waits for no man But as long as I live I'll wait for ever and forever for you Aw I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Oh I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Oh I guess my dreams weren't meant to be Oh I guess my dreams weren't meant to be
