you'll say it's a dream, a lovely dream
I say it happened, strange as it may seem
I spoke last night to the ocean
I spoke last night to the sea
and from the ocean a voice came back
'twas my Blue Jacket answering me
ship ahoy ship ahoy
I can hear you sailor boy
I THREW A KISS IN THE OCEAN
it floated out on the sea
and from the ocean a kiss came back
'twas my blue jacket answering me
ship ahoy ship ahoy ship ahoy sailor boy ship ahoy

Maybe the sun will go on shining
Maybe the stars fall from the skiesWhere there's a river flowingThere is no way of knowingWhere it goes, no one knows
Maybe the rain will go on fallingMaybe the mountains touch the skiesWhere there's a cold wind blowingThere is no way of knowing
Where it goes, no one knows
Living alone in the cityAll of our dreams left behindIn every life there are seasonsOf laughter and sorrow
Where in the world did our love go?[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/where-in-the-world-lyrics-bbm.html ]When did our dreams say goodbye?
Living alone in the cityAll of our dreams left behindIn every life there are seasonsOf laughter and sorrow
Where in the world did our love go?Where did our dreams choose to hide?Where in the world did our love go?When did our dreams say goodbye?
WHERE IN THE WORLD did our love go
Where in the world did our love go?Where in the world, where in the worldWhere in the world did our love go?

You can't keep loving me like this when you are not mine
I can't keep loving you like this when you are not mine
Mine, you are NOT MINE,
We can't keep on loving when you're not mine

We can't keep on loving when you're not mine

Couple of jiggers of moonlight and add a star
Pour in the blue of a June night and one guitar
Mix in a couple of dreamers and there you are:
Lovers hail the MOONLIGHT COCKTAIL
Now add a couple of flowers, a drop of dew
Stir for a couple of hours 'til dreams come true
Add to the number of kisses, it's up to you
MOONLIGHT COCKTAIL- need a few.
Cool it in the summer breeze
Serve it in the starlight underneath the trees.
You'll discover tricks like these
Are sure to make your MOONLIGHT COCKTAIL please.
Follow the simple directions and they will bring
Life of another complexion where you'll be king
You will awake in the morning and start to sing
MOONLIGHT COCKTAILS are the thing.

SOMEONE’S ROCKING MY DREAMBOAT
someone's
invading my dream
we were sailing along so peaceful & calm
suddenly something went wrong
SOMEONE’S ROCKING MY DREAMBOAT
disturbing a beautiful dream
it's a mystery to me, this mutiny at sea who can it be
a friendly breeze gave us a start
to a paradise of our own
all at once a storm blew us apart
& left me drifting alone
SOMEONE’S ROCKING MY DREAMBOAT
I'm captain without any crew
but with love as my guide I'll follow the tide
I'll keep sailing till I find you

I wrote my mother, I wrote my father
And now I'm writing you too
I'm sure of mother, I'm sure of father
And now I want to be sure, very, very sure of you
DON'T SIT UNDER THE APPLE TREE WITH ANYONE ELSE BUT ME
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me, no, no, no
DON'T SIT UNDER THE APPLE TREE WITH ANYONE ELSE BUT ME
Till I come marching home
Don't go walking down lovers' lane with anyone else but me
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me, no, no, no
Don't go walking down lovers' lane with anyone else but me
Till I come marching home
I just got word from a guy who heard
From the guy next door to me
The girl he met just loves to pet
And it fits you to a "T" so
DON'T SIT UNDER THE APPLE TREE WITH ANYONE ELSE BUT ME
Till I come marching home.

And I’ve seen toasts to Tangerine
Raised in everybar across the Argentine

But her heart belongs to just one
Her heart belongs to TANGERINE.

ONE MORE KISS by
HEIDI:
One more kiss before we part,
One more kiss and--farewell,
Never shall we meet again,
Just a kiss and then
We break the spell.
(Her younger counterpart appears.)
One more kiss to melt the heart,
One more glimpse of the past.
HEIDI and YOUNG HEIDI:
One more souvenir of bliss
Knowing well that this
One must be the last.
Dreamt are a sweet mistake.
All dreamers must awake.
YOUNG HEIDI:
On, then, with the dance,
No backward glance
Or my heart will break.
Never look back.
HEIDI:
Never look back. YOUNG HEIDI:
One more kiss before we part. Ah...ah...
Not with tears or a sigh.
All things beautiful must die. All things beautiful must die.
Now that our love is done,
Lover, give me...
BOTH:
...One
More kiss and-goodbye.

I DON’T WANT TO WALK WITHOUT YOU baby
walk without my arm about you babyI tho’t the day you left me behind
I'd take a stroll & get you right off my mind but now I find that
I don't want to walk without the sunshine
why'd you have to turn off all that sunshine
o baby please come back or you'll break my heart for me ’cause
I DON’T WANT TO WALK WITHOUT YOU no siree.

We just discovered each other
Tonight when the lights were low
One dance led up to another
And now I can't let you go
So tell me I may always dance
THE ANNIVESARY WALTZ with you
Tell me this is real romance
An anniversary dream come true
Let this be the answer
To our future years
Through millions of smiles
And a few little tears
May I always listen to
THE ANNIVERSARY WALTZ with you
Let this be the answer
To our future years
Through millions of smiles
And a few little tears
May I always listen to
THE ANNIVERSARY WALTZ with you.

How green was my valley, How blue were my skies, I worshipped the love light That shone in your eyes. Our heavenly love dream Has faded and gone; No more does the sunrise Appear with the dawn. I still hear your laughter, I whisper your name; This world, dear, without you Will never be the same. How green was my valley, How dear were your charms; Come back to me darling, Come back to my arms! How green was my valley, How dear were your charms; Come back to me darling, Come back to my arms!

I'm writing you, my dear Just to tell you
In September, you remember 'Neath the old apple tree
You whispered to me When it blossomed again, you'd be mine.
I've waited until I could claim you, I hope I've not waited in vain.
For when it's spring in the valley, I'm coming, my sweetheart again
I'LL BE WITH YOU IN APPLE BLOSSOM TIME
I'll be with you to change your name to mine.
One day in May I'll come and say:
"Happy the bride the sun shines on today!"
What a wonderful wedding there will be,
What a wonderful day for you and me!
Church bells will chime
You will be mine In apple blossom time.
I'll be with you in apple blossom time,
I'll be with you to change your name to mine.
One day in May I'll come and say:
"Happy the bride the sun shines on today!"
What a wonderful wedding there will be,

MA I MISS YOUR APPLE PIE
Ma, I miss your stew
Ma, they're treating me alright
But they can't cook like you
Oh, Ma, nobody's spoiling me
Like you used to do
They won't let me stay in bed until noon
At five-forty-five they play me a tune
Oh, Ma, I miss your apple pie
And by the way, I miss you too

and when we meet, music starts
upon the strings of our hearts
and we don't keep to the song
for words are weak when love is strong
& when we kiss there's a sound
like violins all around
& then the moment when
we kiss again
our song becomes a thrilling
CONCERTO FOR TWO
for me & you

Russian Serenade

You put me out of your life with nowhere to go
And you left me without love and nothin' to show
Of the love that you told me had died
Did you think I had another
Did I ever blow my cover
Now you want me to come back to you
You know that you do
Don't take it so hard girl, and don't make me choose
Without love I'm losin' but with you I just lose
All my chances for freedom to fly
Are you willing to take chances
In between my new romances
No-you're not ready yet I can see
You won't let me be
I'm just a man on my own
Out in the world all alone
Now you want me to start over again
How can I win I'm just beginning
WHAT MORE CAN I SAY
You made me lose my freedom to fly
So don't go tryin' and destroyin'
The time that we can be enjoyin'
You know I'm gonna have it my way
WHAT MORE CAN I SAY
What more can I say

Two weeks away feels like the whole world should have changed,
But I'm home now, and things still look the same.
I think I'll leave it 'til tomorrow to unpack,
Try to forget for one night that I'm back in my flat.
On the road where the cars never stop going through the night,
To a life where I can't watch the sun set.
I don't have time.
I don't have time.
I've still got SAND IN MY SHOES
And I can't shake the thought of you.
I should get on, forget you.
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye,
Anything else would have been confused.
But I want to see you again.
Tomorrow's back to work and down to sanity,
Should run a bath and then clear up the mess i made before i left here.
Try to remind myself that i was happy here,
Before I knew that I could get on a plane and fly away,
From the road where the cars never stop going through the night,
To a life where I can watch the sun set,
And take my time.
Take all my time.
I've still got SAND IN MY SHOES
And I can't shake the thought of you.
I should get on, forget you.
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye,
Anything else would have been confused.
But I want to see you again.
Two weeks away, All it takes,
To change and turn me around,
I've fallen. I walked away,
And never said, That I wanted to see you, Again.
I've still got SAND IN MY SHOES
And I can't shake the thought of you.
I should get on, forget you.
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye,
Anything else would have been confused.
But I want to see you again.
I've still got sand in my shoes,
And I can't shake the thought of you.
I should get on, forget you.
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye,
Anything else would have been confused.
But I want to see you again.
I've still got sand in my shoes,
And I can't shake the thought of you.
I should get on, forget you.
But why would I want to?
I know we said goodbye,
Anything else would have been confused.
But I want to see you again.
I want to see you again.
I want to see you again.

We're such a happy pair
That it isn't right, no, it isn't fair
To all those other boys I gave the air
So, Daddy, let me stay out late
For tomorrow is our wedding date
Let the Baby kinda celebrate
KISS THE BOYS GOODBYE
Daddy, let me wear the mink
What's the difference what the neighbours think
Let the Baby linger on the brink
Oh, kiss the boys goodbye
And while I'm kissing them sentiment'ly
Keep the liberal point of view
Because I'm breaking it to them gently
That my heart belongs to you
So, Daddy, please remember this
That tomorrow starts a life of bliss
Let me show them what they're gonna miss
Kiss the boys goodbye

Maria Elena you're the answer to a prayer
Maria Elena can't you see how much I care
To me your voice is like the echo of a sigh
And when you're near my heart
Can't speak above a sigh

Maria Elena take me to your heart
A love like mine is great enough for two
To share this love is really all I ask of you

I DON'T WANT TO SET THE WORLD ON FIRE
I just want to start
A flame in your heart
In my heart I have but one desire
And that one is you
No other will do
I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just want to be the one you love
And with your admission that you feel the same
I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of
Believe me!
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start
A flame in your heart
I don't want to set the world on fire, honey
I love it too much
I just want to start a great, big flame
Down in your heart
You see, way down inside of me
Darlin' I have only one desire
And that one desire is you
And I know nobody else ain't gonna do
I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just want to be the one you love
And with your admission that you feel the same
I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of
Believe me!
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart!

Thank you for this precious day
These gifts you give to me
My heart so full of love for you
Sings praise for all i see
Oh sing for every mother's child
For every childhood tear
Oh sing for all the stars above
The peace beyond all fear
This is for the refugees
The ones without a home
A boat out on the ocean
A city street alone
Are they not some dear mother's child
Are they not you and i
Are we the ones to bear this shame
And they this sacrifice
Or are they just like FALLING LEAVES
Who give themselves away
From dust to dust from seed to shear
And to another day
If i could have one wish on earth
Of all i can conceive
T'would be to see another spring
And bless the falling leaves
Thank you for this precious day
These gifts you give to me
My heart so full of love for you
Sings praise for all i see
Oh sing for every mother's child
For every childhood tear
Oh sing for all the stars above
The peace beyond all fear

Oh, oh Sometimes I feel like giving up
Seems like my best, it just ain't good enough
I feel like I've done all that I can do
Do you see, do you care, Lord
All about what I'm goin' through?
And then He said, one more day, yeah
Oh, just one more step
He says, I'm preparing you, oh, for Myself
And when you can't hear My voice, oh, trust My plan
I am the Lord, I see you, and, yes, I understand
Sometimes I feel like I'm all alone
I'm just like a stranger so far from home
I feel like I've done all that I can do
Oh, please, Lord, give me strength
I'm just tryin' to make it through
Hey, yeah
(One more day) One more step, yeah
(One more step) God says, I'm preparing you, oh, for Myself
And when you can't hear My voice
(Can't hear My voice) Oh, trust My plan
I am the Lord, I see you, and, yes, I understand
He knows just how much you can bear
And in the time of trouble He promised
He would always be there
Yeah, I UNDERSTAND (I understand)
The Lord is telling you, yes, I understand
Oh, I am the Lord, I see you, and, yes, I understand
He says, I am the Lord and I changeth not
And I won't forget nor have I forgot
And everything works according to My plan
I am God, trust Me, I got the whole world in My hands
Oh, one more day, hey, hey
Oh, I'm preparing you, oh,
I'm getting you ready, yeah, for Myself
And when you can't hear My voice,
Oh, don't worry about it
Just trust me enough to know I've got the master plan
I am the Lord, I see everything you're going through, yes
Every burden, every trial, every tribulation, yeah
And I understand, I understand, I understand

I love to climb an apple tree
Though apples green are bad for me
And I'll be sick as I can be
IT'S FOOLISH BUT IT'S FUN
While wise men seek your time and space
And get all wrinkled in the face
From loafing in some shady place
IT'S FOOLISH BUT IT'S FUN
If it should ever come to pass
That I inherit wealth
I'll eat and drink and drink and eat
Until I wreck my health
I love to ramble over lea
And chase the busy bumble bee
Though the bee may light on me
IT"S FOOLISH BUT IT'S FUN
When thunder storms put folks to rout
And no one dares to venture out
That's when I love to slosh about
IT'S FOOLISH BUT IT'S FUN
I like to be on friendly terms
With pollywogs and mangle worms
And all the very deadly germs
It's foolish but it's fun
I love to sit beside a brook
And wait for fish to bite
And though they never do
It's nice to think perhaps they might
While others climb the mountains high
Beneath the tree I love to lie
And watch the snails go whizzing by
It's foolish but it's fun
I want to sing, I want to waltz
My heart is doing somersaults
I love this world with all its faults
It's foolish but it's fun
I want to walk a garden wall
Especially a wall that's tall
And if I fall, I fall that's all
It's foolish but it's fun
I want to climb a steeple
And I want to ring a bell
So I can tell the people
That I like them all so well
The grass is green, the sky is blue
The cows go moo, the cuckoos coo
I want to be a cuckoo too
It's cuckoo but it's fun
Though apples green are bad for me
And I'll be sick as I can be
IT'S FOOLISH BUT IT'S FUN

Is he moving too fast? Is she moving too slow?
She telling me that I'm silly, but I'm only 2-0
And it sucks that she just want to be friends with me
I try to put her on where I'm at mentally
I'm full of energy
At times I need a remedy
For lack of things that interest me
But still her body is tempting me
She just keep rejecting me
Why she keep stressing me?
Screaming like "Don't touch me bitch, I don't got leprosy"
Maybe we wasn't meant to be
But I was down Bonnaroo, Tennessee
In the RV, I can shut down a stage
Casey had the veggies on the bus, we smoked a pound of haze
Digress the tree can cold stress
When you feeling a bad bitch, but she showing you no interest
Sending letters with no address
And she never gon' get it so let it rest
DOES SHE LOVE ME? No sir
Does she want me? No sir
I think she hates me
What has she done for me lately?
I'm high with no intent to land
I seem to fall for the girls with the short attention spans
Who just wanna rendezvous
I would take her on a date, to a nice restaurant
But I got too much on my plate
Said I'm here for a day
She hit me three hours late
Found out I left the city, bet she had the sour face
Told her I would kick it with her whenever I return
But that was based on the premise that she was my concern
Searching for serious, life
Then I was fast
Had me speeding on this racetrack, furious
The kinda chick, the flyest nigga in the school he had her
But eff that, I'm trying to focus on what truly matters
I like em usually bad, always on punishment
Having a conversation, wishing I could punish it
And why the fantasy so far from the truth, huh?
Running in circles playing Duck, Duck, Goose, huh?
We take the shit any slower, then we gonna hold up traffic
Only hit the blunt once, then she fuckin' pass it
I knew we wasn't compatible
Quarterback my feelings to the side, that's a lateral
I wish that I could be satisfied
I wish you would let me have a try
But there's a problem with you and I
Now it's Chi-town, do or die

There I go, leading with my heart again
And there I go, acting not so smart again
Then though it's unwise, I can't disguise my love
Though I know too much love may curb the fire
There I go, led astray by my desire
There's no golden rule to guide a fool in love
I tell my heart, "Be careful
Or you'll find that you dream alone
"I'm wise it's true, what good does it do?
My heart has a mind of its own
There I go, spilling all the dreams I knew
And there I go thrillingly in love with you
Don't know if you care, darling but there I go

How I love the kisses of DOLORESOh I love her aye-aye-aye Dolores
Not Marie or Emily or Doris
None of them but only my Dolores, just Dolores
From a balcony above me
She whispers, "Love me" and throws a rose
Ah but she is twice as lovely
As the rose she throws
I would die to be with my Dolores
To be near her aye-aye-aye Dolores
I was made to serenade Dolores
Serenade her chorus after chorus
Just imagine eyes like moon rise
A voice like music, lips like wine
What a break if I could make Dolores
Mine all mine
I would die to be with my Dolores
To be near her aye-aye-aye Dolores
I was made to serenade Dolores
Serenade her chorus after chorus
Just imagine eyes like moon rise
A voice like music, lips like wine
What a break if I could make Dolores
Mine all mine

Oh mama, oh mama, oh mama, oh mama
What if he should insist on one embrace, mama,
How can I keep him in his place If his manner becomes a shade improper? Tell him that your heart belongs to papa
Mother, will it be exciting?
Yes, my darling daughter Mother, do I look inviting?
Yes, my darling daughter If he holds me tight, mama darling, and my knees just turn to water Mama must I keep on dancing? Yes, my darling daughter What if he’ll persist, mama darling, doing things he hadn’t oughta Mama, what should be my answer? Yes, my darling daughter

There goes that song again, we used to call it our serenade
We fell in love when we heard it played
Over and over, and over and over again.
I still remember when
I sang the words and they made you mine
I'd steal a kiss and repeat each line
Over and over, and over and over and then
We drifted apart, you walked off with my heart
It's funny how one listen, just starts me reminiscin'
I'd soon forget that yen, I told myself
When you said, "So long," but I was wrong,
There goes that song again
There goes that song again, we used to call it our serenade
We fell in love when we heard it played
Over and over, and over and over again.
I still remember when
I sang the words and they made you mine
I'd steal a kiss and repeat each line
Over and over, and over and over and then
We drifted apart, you walked off with my heart
It's funny how one listen, just starts me reminiscin'
I'd soon forget that yen, I told myself
When you said, "So long," but I was wrong,
There goes that song again

When they sound the last all-clear
How happy, my darling, we'll be
When they turn up the lights
And the dark lonely nights
Are only a memory Never more we'll be apart
Always together, sweetheart For the peace-bells will ring
And the whole world will sing
When they sound the last all-clear
We've got our troubles and we've got our cares
But as long as we keep smiling through
There'll come a day When the clouds roll away
And the sun will be shining anew
When they sound the last all-clear
How happy, my darling, we'll be
When they turn up the lights And the dark lonely nights Are only a memory Never more we'll be apart Always together, sweetheart For the peace-bells will ring And the whole world will sing When they sound the last all-clear

When that man is dead and gone
When that man is dead and gone
We’ll go dancing down the street
Kissing everyone we meet
When that man is dead and gone
What a day to wake up on
What a way to greet the dawn
Some fine day the news’ll flash Satan with a small moustache Is asleep beneath the lawn When that man is dead and gone Satan, Satan, thought up a plan Dressed as a man Walking the earth and since he began The world is hell for you and me But what a heaven it will be When that man is dead and gone When that man is dead and gone When they lay him twelve feet deep I’ll be there to laugh, not weep When that man is dead and gone What a day to wake up on What a way to greet the dawn Satan’ll take him by the hand To meet old Gerring, look what, man When that man is dead and gone When that man is dead and gone Some fine day the news’ll flash Satan with a small moustache Is asleep beneath the lawn When that man is dead and gone What a day to wake up on What a way to greet the dawn When a certain man is dead and gone

I'm just about fed up
I've finally had my fill
Of sitting around and crying in my beer
I've drunk the bitter cup
I've downed the bitter pill
While waiting for the silver lining to appear
I'm going to stack my blues up
On the very highest shelf
I'm going to pack my blues up
And get wise to myself
Weep no more, my baby
Weep no more, my baby
Weep no more, I'm going to weep no more
I'm putting an end to this lonesome game
It's such a lonesome game this crying
Cry no tears, I'm going to cry no tears
Each time that I happen to hear his name
I hear his name
I'm going out on the town
This hopeless torch, I will drown
'Cause I'm tired of running around
Running around
With just a memory
Weep no more, I'm going to weep no more
Till somebody weeps
Until somebody weeps for me
I'm going to stack my blues up
On the very highest shelf
I'm going to pack my blues up
And get wise to myself
Weep no more, I'm going to weep no more
Till somebody weeps for me
Weep no more

DREAM VALLEY at the rainbow's end
Dream Valley, land of let's pretend
A bit of heaven to wander in
Where cares are ended and joys begin,
In Dream Valley when you're near my love
I'm happy skies are clear above
The dreams we're dreaming will always come true
In Dream Valley, dear with you

THE LAST TIME I SAW PARIS
Her heart was warm and gray
I heard the laughter of her heart in every street cafe
The last time I saw Paris
Her trees were dressed for spring
And lovers walked beneath those trees
And birds found songs to sing
I dodged the same old taxicabs
That I had dodged for years
The chorus of the squeaky horns
Was music to my ears
oh the last time I saw Paris
Her heart was warm and gay
No matter how they changed her
I'll remember her ah that way
Dodged the same old taxicabs
That I had dodged for years
The chorus of the squeaky horns
Was music to my ears
Yeh, the last time I saw Paris
Her heart was warm and gay
No matter how they change her
I'll remember her that way
The last time I saw Paris
The last time I saw Paris

Oh, give me SOMETHING TO REMEMBER YOU BY
when you are far away from me.
Some little something meaning love cannot die, no matter where you chance to be.
Though I'll pray for you, night and day for you,
It will see me through like a charm till your returning.
So give me something to remember you by, when you are far away from me.

Have you ever passed the corner of Fourth and Grand
Where a little ball of rhythm has a shoeshine stand?
People gather 'round and they clap their hands,
He's a great big bundle of joy--
He pops a boogie woogie rag,
The Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy.
He charges you a nickel just to shine one shoe.
He makes the oldest kind of leather look like new.
You feel as tho' you want to dance when he gets thru.
He's a great big bundle of joy--
He pops a boogie woogie rag,
The Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy.
It's a wonder that the rag don't tear the way he makes it pop
You ought to see him fan the air, with his hoppity hippity hippity hoppity hoppity hippity hop.
He opens up for bus'ness when the clock strikes nine,
He likes to get 'em early when they're feelin' fine.
Ev'rybody gets a little rise and shine
With the great big bundle of joy.
He pops a boogie woogie rag,
The Chattanoogie Shoe Shine Boy....Boy!

Gee, but I'm lonesome,
lonesome and blue.
I've found out something
I never knew.
I know now what it means
to be sad,
For I've lost the best
gal I ever had;
She only left yesterday,
Somebody stole her away.
Somebody stole my gal
Somebody stole my pal
Somebody came and took
her away
She didn't even say she
was leavin'
The kisses I love so
He's getting now I know,
And Gee! I know that she
Would come to me if she
could see
Her broken hearted
lonesome pal
Somebody stole my gal
Angels they say are only
above
I know that's wrong
because my old love
Sure is an angel, take
it from me
And she's all the angel
I want to see
Maybe she'll come back
some day
All I can do now is pray
Somebody stole my gal
Somebody stole my pal
Somebody came and took
her away
She didn't even say she
was leavin'
The kisses I love so
He's getting now I know
And Gee! I know that she
Would come to me if she
could see
Her broken hearted
lonesome pal
Somebody stole my gal.
And Gee! I know that she
Would come to me if she
could see
Her broken hearted
lonesome pal
Somebody stole my
Somebody stole my
Somebody stole my gal!

At the Café Continental
Like a fool I fell in love
It was all so accidental
Picking up a lady’s glove
I had eyes but for her only
As we sipped a glass of wine
And I told her I was lonely
So she slipped her hand in mine
she arranged to meet me later
But we’ve never met since then
Maybe in some other café
She dropped her glove again
Now I’m blue and sentimental
For my heart is not my own
At the Café Continental
Every night I sit alone.

Did I remember to tell you, I adore you?
And I am livin' for you alone
Did I remember to say,
I'm lost without you
And just how mad about you, I've grown
You were in my armsAnd that was all I knew
We were alone, we twoWhat did I say to you?
Did I remember to tell you, I adore you?
And pray forevermore, you'll be mine
You were in my armsAnd that was all I knewWe were alone, we twoWhat did I say to you?
Did I remember to tell you, I adore you?And pray forevermore, you'll be mine

LADY OF SPAIN I adore you
right from the night I first saw you
my heart has been yearning for you
What else could any heart do?
LADY OF SPAIN I'm appealing
Why should my lips be concealing
All that my eyes are revealing
LADY OF SPAIN I love you
Night in Madrid, blue and tender
Spanish moon makes silver splendor
Music throbbing, plaintive sobbing notes of a guitar
While ardent caballeros serenade

just to caress you -- MY LIFE'S DESIRE
just in my arms to enfold you
and to my heart closely hold you
sharing your gladness -- MY LIFE'S DESIRE
bearing your sadness I never tire
just to be near you protect and revere you
is MY LIFE'S DESIRE
