"The World We Knew (Over and Over)" is a popular song recorded by Frank Sinatra in 1967. It is based on a composition by Bert Kaempfert, a German musician and composer.

The song first appeared on Sinatra's 1967 album The World We Knew and was released as a single later that year. "The World We Knew (Over and Over)" peaked at number thirty on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in September 1967. [1] On the Billboard easy listening chart, it spent five weeks at number one, and was Sinatra's sixth and final single to top that chart. [2]

Charles Aznavour adapted the song to French for Paul Mauriat and Mireille Mathieu called "Un monde avec toi". [3] Fred Bongusto adapted the song to Italian called "Ore D'Amore". Josh Groban covered the song on his album Harmony.
